The Emperor flew down, toward his retreating soldiers. Now that there was no chance of wearing down the invading forces, and with a seemingly recovered Anteris who could join the fight, it would be certain death to continue fighting Tam.
"Make for the Inner City! The wall will hold!" The Emperor called out to the retreating Imperial forces, as he glided over them, slashing out toward the Ursten forces that followed, securing his men's retreat.
Flying slashes of pure light slammed into the ground in front of the Ursten forces, carving deep into the road in front of them, completely incinerating a few soldiers who were hot on the tails of the Imperial forces.
The Ursten soldiers, seeing that the Emperor was escorting his retreating soldiers himself, immediately came to a halt, as eager as they were, none of them wanted to run into the glowing slashes that fell from the sky.
