'What's strange is Amael's movement,' he mused, stealing a glance at Amael before everyone moved and the battle began.
'He also insinuated the narrative; so was it fate, or some hand of the Goddess herself?' Jash doubted the convenience of the situation for a second.
It seemed far too smooth to him to not doubt.
