Currently, we are getting attacked on all sides by vines, from left to right, from top to bottom, everywhere. It is thanks to Lady Atkins that we are even surviving; every minute, she would construct thousands of the water elemental constructs that would defend against the vines.
It is extremly straining for her, and she is also rapidly expanding the energy from the five-pointed star floating above her.
