Gregg forced himself to stand up, intending to head back into battle. However, before he could take two steps, he was stopped by Ariel Watson.

Under the hazy moonlight, the courtyard was shrouded in smoke, shadowy figures clashed, and the radiance of spells intertwined with the cold glint of weapons, signaling a fierce battle was underway.
