Reign's heart swelled with a mix of pride and relief as the elven woman's words sank in. He had made it to the base of the mountain with the Flame of Ascendance, securing their victory in the fourth Elite Trial. However, his mind immediately turned to his friends who were still fighting on the mountainside.
"We did it," Reign said, his voice filled with both joy and concern. "But my team, they –"
Before Reign could continue speaking, a flash of light made him cover his eyes before opening them again. He and the rest of the team were all standing in front of the gate they had entered in order to start the trial.
"Did any of you-"
"No, none of us died, some did get close to, but we're fine now, the arena has automatically healed us as well, at least the serious injuries," Wolf said as he stretched his arms a bit.
"And you made it, you got to the base of the mountain."
