Lodestar, instead of waiting around, went out to confront his foe. They were currently within the middle walls and a fight there between such powerful forces would cause devastating damage. To minimize damage and most importantly, loss of life, he had to take the fight to the abyssal entity instead of allowing it get there first.
Aldritch knew fully well that such a fight was not for him and he would only be useless there, so he stayed back and maintained very good distance. Trusting that Lodestar would perform wonderfully, he went into the innermost wall to check up on the others' progress. It had been enough time for them to have found the king.
On arrival, Aldritch was greeted with a rather domineering sight of the forces from the church completely defeated. At that moment, a few that had survived out of the hundreds were held as captives and rounded together. Without stopping by, Aldritch made his way into the royal castle.
