There were no war declarations like the ones ordinary human nobles so liked to use.
Nor were there any insincere greetings.
A fight between Mages erupted the moment everyone involved had arrived!
The old Mage known as Cochran continuously waved his hand about in the air. Every time, a strange flashing rune appeared and a terrifying, otherworldly creature would step out of nowhere.
Manticores, Destrachans, Ogre Magi, Wyverns, Formian Worker Ants, Yeth Hounds...
Though none of these creatures were excessively powerful, each and every one of them had a strength that rivaled pseudo-Mages. More importantly, their numbers seemed... a little over-the-top!
These otherworld creatures had traversed space under the influence of magical power. They leapt towards Mage Keoghan the moment they appeared. Keoghan let out a wicked grin and moved forward to engage.
