After the complete retreat of the Wolf Guild members, those of Tide Guild finally felt a weight lift from their chest.
However, turning to gaze upon their war-torn base, their hearts sank, and faces became crestfallen.
Despite their hard-fought victory in the Guild Battle, the devastating losses left them deeply disheartened.
In such times of despondency, it was upon Dirge, the guild leader, to step forward.
John naturally stepped aside, choosing to observe rather than intervene.
He was keen to gauge Dirge's leadership capabilities.
To John's satisfaction, Dirge did not falter. She quickly composed herself and methodically began coordinating the base reconstruction tasks.
Her directives, crisply voiced, quickly spread amongst the various squads of Tide Guild.
The hundreds of Tide Guild members, after a brief moment of mental adjustment, swiftly shifted their mindset and began cleaning up the aftermath of the battle.
