Back in the Temple...
"Retreat!" Branze issued the order, and he and Diana created a massive wall that blocked the entire path and allowed the army to retreat.
Ever since Branze and Diana began to lead the army into attacking, they had ventured and retreated three times.
The first attempt was a disaster as the knights and servants were moving out. While the servants were required to train in archery and sword fighting, they had yet to experience a full battle. Previously, only the knights held the ground on the front lines, and so the first attempt to attack brought out many servants who were trembling.
The Coven did most of the work and made their attacks.
