[ There's a kind of grim triumph in her, even as she feels the clinging tarry blood starting to burn through her outer layer of bark-skin. She launches herself backwards off the beast in a tidy flip, just about to stick the landing with a smile for Cardinal... when those few remaining claws secure themselves around her ankle before she's fully clear.

Then she uses the force of the wind itself to launch itself into the fray, naginata whirling the petals around her as it moves.
