I felt bad for her, but she had lost as soon as the battle started. While my citizens are strong, my allies are something else entirely.
Is it cowardly to call upon an ally after ganging up on a single opponent? Absolutely.

Merchant: "Haha! Sorry, I was a bit occupied... I also tried to reach this place without using my Gift, but without a thread to follow it was no use... Still, I'm here now, so you can relax. Just point me the one you want dead and-"

Merchant: "Eek! There's a torso talking to... No way... Elizabeth...?"
... Hm?
