The battle broke out in an alley not far ahead, and it took the trio less than a minute to arrive at the scene.
A male Zoel wielding dual blades was facing an attack from two of his kind, his body enshrouded in purple flames, but a closer look revealed that the fire caused him no harm; it simply made him stand out in the darkness. Aside from those he was fighting, there were seven or eight enemies on the eaves on both sides of the street, including a woman, who was watching the fight from above.
Three Dark Elf corpses lay on the ground, covered in long, thin wounds, a testament to the besieged Zoel's considerable strength. Yet, from the way he was struggling, it seemed he wouldn't last much longer.
"Kamoen!" Acheron shouted immediately upon seeing the Dark Elf, "We're here to help you!"
