Amid all the chaos in the forest were Natasha, Shen, and Alice, still aimlessly wandering. They saw the changes in the Mission, thus stopping looking for the source of the spell. Footsteps of unknown individuals reverberated, scattered around the forest, commanding each other.
The clanking of their armors echoed, their swords slapping on their armor-plated legs, trudging through the muddy puddles.
"The enemies are here."
The three Players erased their presence, observing if the knights of Xenia would make it out of the forest or not. They waited near the entrance, hiding on trees, watching knights go in the group by group.
Alice equipped her sword, browsing through her spatial inventory, looking for something useful, but she found nothing except for a few bottles of water and blades she broke before.
She sighed in disappointment, 'I should have restocked before the Mission started.'
