[This... is definitely not good. With Mafuyu trying to negotiate and Mana and Mahaad themselves looking worse for wear, it's starting to seem as though there may be a way to end this peacefully.
That is, at least, until Shalem just decides to go nuclear and keep on attacking in spite of Mafuyu trying to talk them down. And heeeeeee.... does not exactly seem very sane at the moment, either.
So instead of attacking either Mana or Mahaad, Richard is going to aim a rapier strike (18) at Shalem, not intending to injure him severely but rather just snap him out of whatever is wrong with him right now.]
[It's a good thing Shalem doesn't do friendly fire all that much because he's holding his attacks against Richard now. But it might also be because he's blinking the spots out of his eyes.]
No. Pacifism? Talking? No, never. There's only the performance, the encore, and the finishing touches.

Get a hold of yourself!

[Except maybe he shouldn't be talking. This happens before Fray's Me Patra because he might have mauled Richard--
Shalem tries to retaliate, but the Dizzy definitely saves Richard right now (9, 7), and the staff swing goes wide.]

Stop this! Can't you see they aren't certain about fighting us?
