As tempestuous as matters seemed, she could only count one elemental in her vicinity. As a general courteous, she usually attempted to avoid comparisons to cockroaches, but this time around, she couldn’t help but consider the adage, ‘if you spot one, a thousand more are in the walls.' Keeping her sunglasses tuned on the increasingly confrontational elemental, she subtly pointed her eyes downard. Her understanding of the ebb and tide had yet to be contradicted by anything seen so far at Nadir, but she couldn’t help but notice very unusually small currents circling her.

This was a delicate situation, one where her demise was one misstep away from being sacrificed to a mad surf-god. Remaining face to face with a singular assailant, she weighed her options. She wasn’t quick, and disguising her actions was far from plausible under short notice. For the time being, she remained stone-faced in the midst of a man made of cool water, offering nothing but white hot fury.

A third (give or take a dozen unintroduced elementals) made his presence known, one able to match the temperament of the elemental bros. Not only had he successfully brought one of the others out of hiding, he managed to captivate the attention of the one right in Umeko’s personal space, even as he suffered at the hands of his own accosting force.

In twisting his head, Umeko saw an opportunity, albeit brief. While her power didn’t offer her much in the way of speed, it was decisive. Summoning her [Worldline Superimposer], she slotted [Frozen Lake] into the magical device. Overriding a pleasant span of shallows was a shock of cold, ushering in a simmering, but very un-tropical body of ice. Her target had been thrown into complete disarray, opening them up to a direct blast of ice from her magical hands, which she took advantage of without hesitation. Having taken his head clear off his shoulders, Umeko was sure she rattled it a little.

Not even bothering to check if she had just struck an innocent water elemental under a fall assumption, she kept her magic throwing hand trained on the shivering (but reforming) surfemental, who remained staggered by the surprise attack. Unperturbed by the tapping and cracking beneath the ice, she turned her obscured gaze more vaguely towards Kurai, “There's been a large scale kidnappin', and these gentlemen seem to be responsible. Do you have the time to help me resolve this?” She politely questioned, using her free hand to summon her camera from her inventory.

Used

[break][break]

Name: Frozen Lake [break]
Damage Type: Ice[break]
Description: A large body of water that has been troubled by terrible cold, the entire surface sealing over and becoming a treacherous battlefield for any to fight in.[break]
Effects: While on the Frozen Lake, [SPD] is increased by 20% however all creatures can only move in straight lines, this doesn't apply if they are flying or levitating. Any damage greater than the Lady of Vistas [MAGI] will also cause the ice to shatter and send freezing water up, causing those attacks to deal an additional count of damage equal to the Lady of Vistas [MAGI]-1 Rank to all enemies within five meters of the initial target.
