While he waited, Toz idly wondered how the second combatant, aside from himself, had arrived so quickly. Toz thought he had been fast since he stepped onto the magic circle, barely moments after he got the message.
However, he soon got his answer.
The third person to arrive outside of General Scoll's party tumbled through the tunnel.
It seemed like Braxton, the earth mage in control of the tunnel, had intentionally sloped the tunnel when the new visitor slid through it since her exit speed was significantly lower than Toz's. However, that only served to limit how far she ground her face against the ground.
The young woman hurriedly stood up after tumbling and rolling on the ground face first. She quickly brushed off her clothes and fixed the shoulder-length hair so that it looked at least somewhat sorted.
"My apologies. I hurried over as soon as I got the message."
