a winter labyrinth

[townmusician]

断ち切るしかないんだろ
注いだ冬は心のラビリンス
後戻りなんて出来ないから
やりきるしかないんだろ
黒い気持ちと手を繋いだって構わない
抱きしめたっていいh

I have to break free
This pouring winter is my heart's labyrinth
I can't go back anymore, so
I have to finish this
I don't care if you took my hand with dark motives
I want you to hold me close

[If he wasn't Fire-element, Shalem would have probably been hurt more than than he was. The chains make him fall over, and while he's conveniently down on the floor to roll and put out the flames, he's in pain, but at this point what is this sort of pain compared to the one he lives with on a regular basis?

He shakes himself off as he slowly gets up. Surprisingly, his clothing isn't that much damaged from the flames, he just feels terrible. Too hot, pained, and uncomfortable in his own skin, like he'd just been airdropped from a chilly Victorian winter into a desert.

Though that doesn't stop Shalem from giving a loud warning hiss before striking. He doesn't use a spell or any attack in his repertoire, no-- Shalem lunges for the snake around Haruka's shoulders, grabbing it around the head and slipping his other hand between the snake's coils and Haruka, attempting to peel it off (17).]
