The three of them come to a screeching halt. An enemy is before them. Where do they go now?
They had been running from the flames behind them, and they cannot run back to where they came from. But moving forward would mean facing the sword that just struck them, and they no longer have their vanguard with them. What do they do now?
The enemy finally reveals herself, wearing the same uniform and mask as all other enemies who have attempted to strike them down today. The soldier brandishes her sword in front of her, moving carefully forward, making the three royals inch back towards the fire.
The three royals are caught in between the sword and the fire. There is no way out. Behind them the smoke billows and the fire rages, a hot inferno waiting to engulf them. In front of them is the Galdonan, her sword ready to strike.
And the Galdonan strikes. She thrusts her swords forward, aiming at the eldest princess.
