As the Pontiff spoke, the storm cloud flashed with lightning and thundered with sound.
The Storm Knights, who were busy practicing their skills or doing various tasks, heard the Pontiff's voice and felt his will.
They quickly prepared themselves, and a few of them opened their grimoires and summoned their mounts!
They were flying beasts, such as griffins and pegasi. They gathered below the storm cloud, and waited for the Pontiff to lead them.
As for the others, they called for their war horses and waited for instructions.
In the meantime, the Pontiff mounted his own summoned flying beast, a giant eagle, and flew into the storm cloud. Needless to say, the Pontiff practices two or maybe even more Arcane Paths!
