The two squads led by Emery and Julian arrived at the nearest Andora native settlement from where their transport landed.
Julian's strategic planning, where he divided and distributed tasks proportionately, was indeed impressive. However, while he didn't oppose the idea, Emery personally thought the best way to get intel was from the people - which in this case was the natives of Andora.
Hence, the reason why they were here was that Emery insisted they had to find the locals right away. Coincidentally, the ones they found were being attacked and nearly overwhelmed by the Abyss creatures.
The two squads of 34 acolytes jumped into the battle and quickly started a massacre. It didn't take long for thousands of Abyss creatures to be annihilated and breathed their last.
While he and the others continued to fight the Abyss creatures, Emery also observed the two types of Abyss creatures they were fighting against.
