Rikku looks dumbfounded. "WHAT?!?!?! After all this, we have to stop?!?!
Have you seen what they did to Kalen? We must have justice!"

Rikku is looking for a fight, but as the Iron Guards just stand there he
soon stops and turns. He screams and yells, "I can't be allowed to fail! I
won't accept that my magic failed me. We must win this
battle......argh.......damn you, Azhur. This is no victory."

Rikku throws down his weapons and punches the nearest wall. Blood pours out
of his hand, made even more painful by the burn scars of all those years
ago. (First Aid 16 on self).
