[Hawke's been out and about since the first set of screams began and she's barely slept since she got back from Antarctica as it bloody is. But nothing wakes her up as well as adrenaline. She has her blade now, thankfully having woken up before her journey with it in hand, but she's well aware about her lack of armor. It can't be changed. She'll check in and see if there's a way to store up on better stuff later, for now Hawke's running on pure energy.
She's covered in blood and bits by this point, her blade wet with it, and she's in a brief moment of respite when she hears a screaming girl. Hawke's head jerks over in the direction of seeing Kassandra running toward her with a girl in her arms and some flying monsters coming at them. As someone who has fought and killed dragons before, she is not cowed by flying beasts.]
Find a corner to hide in and stay still and quiet. They can hear!
[She says sharply to Kassandra, having already been scratched up by one of these bastards before. Simply from her speaking aggressively out loud, the bats put their full attention onto her. Hawke purposely clans her blade and backs up toward a wall, waiting until one swoops at her to roll out of the way, causing it to smash right into the wall. Without missing a beat she slices at its neck to kill it while it is still stunned. She narrowly dodges another bat and keeps making noise, trying to get them away from Kassandra and the girl.]
