Valarie's tale had ended, and Damon opted for them to make a plan of attack. Luckily, the Mist Knight controlling the undead was just a rank two monster.
If it had been rank three… they would've had to flee.
A rank three monster was as powerful as Lilith able to tear down buildings with relative ease. Then again a rank two monster could do just that…. Or worse.
After a few minutes, they had come up with a plan. It could hardly be called that—it was reckless, dangerous… but it was all they had.
The idea was simple: split the party. A dire move, yes, but not without logic. Each member was strong in their own right, and if Valarie was to be believed, this particular Mist Knight relied more on his summoned undead than swordplay.
That didn't mean he wasn't dangerous. If anything he might be even more insidious.
The plan: keep his summons away from him. That was Xander's job—the group's tank—and with him would go the two most offensively capable girls.
