It took a bit longer for the scouts to track down Sera's unconscious body. Luckily, they never need to worry about monsters attacking her while defenseless.
Monsters had little self-preservation, but they still had an inherent fear of angels. It also helped that Sera laid covered in their gore, amidst an endless sea of corpses.

Sera's eyes snapped open as she felt her bed shake violently. With quick moves, she jumped to her feet, summoned her armor and a pair of curved, silvery blades.
