An earth-shattering slam rang out.
Layla had slammed into the ground right next to Talon, Lena, and Hex. The surrounding trees were directly uprooted and shot away along with a tidal wave of snow. A massive crater had formed under Layla, along with a large amount of dust.
As that dust cleared, it revealed Layla in the middle of standing up, then shaking her head. The insect was still attached to her back, somehow unscathed. It looked around curiously, as though wanting to survey the scene.
Hex was lying on his back, flat out unconscious.
Lena had been lying down, but got up casually once more. There weren't any apparent wounds on her body, but the blood spilling out from the corners of her mouth showed that she was far from unscathed.
