Thunderwood Forest, Stormrage City.
Darkbolt and Silvershock led a squad of their tribe members to the central plaza, where they met a harpy unit that had arrived to reinforce Stormrage City.
"Greetings, Princess Emma, Princess Ella!" Darkbolt and Silvershock both lowered their heads in salute. Standing before them were two Alpha-level powerhouses—Lord Ariel's daughters.
"Brave Darkbolt and mighty Silvershock, our mother sent us to help defend your city. We've also brought a large contingent of harpy warriors," Emma said.
Darkbolt and Silvershock exchanged a glance, each seeing surprise in the other's eyes. They had expected Lord Ariel to send ordinary reinforcements, but they never imagined she'd send both of her daughters—along with ten thousand flying harpies. In a single stroke, Stormrage City's defenses had shot up dramatically.
"Your Highnesses, please come with us. We've prepared a welcome feast in your honor," Darkbolt offered.
