Quaker roared as the number of men went from double to single digits in a matter of minutes. At this rate, in addition to those lost in Hexon, The Kou Collective will barely have any Sky Sages left. Omi mentioned Luther going to Savana if what he said was true. Wasn't Ajax alive? Wouldn't he massacre the few Sky sages left inside Kyro while Luther kept Irine busy?
Upon this realization, Quaker became more aggressive. He had to end this quickly, or the consequences will be disastrous. Even if they won, they would lose. What's an army without powerful commanders? Wouldn't they be conquering three countries only to hand it over to the Caimans or opportunists from Sloan?
