About ten minutes after he sent out the message to both Carleine and Ember, Evian sat on the ground and took deep breaths to recuperate any Eldritch energy he had already expended while also getting as much rest as he could for regaining near-perfect physical conditions.
Thanks to Astrid by his side, he had had free reign to gather Soul Points which allowed him to make the big Decadent jump that made him able to avoid injuries in subsequent fights that she did not get involved with.
The footsteps were getting closer and Evian groaned.

He had to get away.
Unfortunately, that was easier said than done.
