Pain of death

Erik grimaced at the sudden flash of light, accompanied with the most ear-piercing scream he had ever heard.
In his rage, all he saw were the remaining Valkyries fleeing. He wanted to hunt them down. He wanted to pulverize their bones, to hear their death throes echo in his ears.
A voice spoke in his head.
"Erik, you are better than this."
The sound of her voice instantly soothed his death craving.
The aura around him extinguishing, he remembered his allies, looking down the rock pile.
Seeing Tiella laying on the ground, he rushed over.

Dyvia finished pummeling a downed Valkyrie, wiping the blood and sweat from her forehead(At least she thought it was their blood).
She had been separated from the others during the skirmish, though far from helpless.
Pulling her hammer out of the skull, she swung it a few times to get as much viscera off of it before hooking it to her belt again.
Hearing her companions, she followed the sound until she reached them.
Seeing Tiella being surrounded by the other, she couldn't help rushing over to her.
