"Are you alright?" Alex quickly flew over to Pearl and asked.
Pearl looked at the beasts that had just left for war. He turned toward Alex as he arrived next to him.
"Was I late, brother? I hope everything is alright still," Pearl said as he looked around, searching for people he cared about. He felt a relief when he saw Liz and Graham in the distance, wounded, but safe.
He tried looking for some other people he could recognize, but the war had restarted after his arrival, and everyone had started moving once more.
"We have a lot of losses," Alex said. "The numbers are not fully in yet, but we should have lost nearly 1500 soldiers in total. 3 of our elders have died as well."
Pearl gave a saddened look. "I'm sorry. I should have come earlier," he said.
