3RD POV
Grivane: - It's time to meet your doom, magic warriors.
The warriors and captains were dragged out of the smoke and tossed into open air. One by one they crashed into the cracked, red-brown wasteland below. Some landed on summoned barriers; others hit the ground hard, the plain echoing with impacts, groans, and flaring spells. Selin struck the ground first, steadying herself with her staff. Leigong dropped beside her in a crackle of lightning. Caius hit a knee, scanning the barren horizon. Lyra tumbled near Willow, who cushioned their fall with blooming plants. Ronan, still in wolf form, landed easily, while Eldrin did not.
Grivane: - Welcome....to your graves.
Selin gritted her teeth. They were surrounded by a large number of foes.
Selin: - Everyone, get ready!
Leigong slammed his fists together, arcs of white lightning leaping from his armor.
Leigong: - You fucking monsters!! I'LL KILL YOU ALL!!
Caius drew his baton, the markings along its edge glowing with a soft lilac.
Caius: - My, my. This battlefield is terrifying. I can feel my creative juices working up here. How about this? "When darkness meets the light". Pretty catchy, right?
Selin: - Now's not the time for songs.
Chrissie stood in front of Lyra; her spear raised to strike.
Chrissie: - Don't worry! We'll win this!
But Grivane only laughed.
Grivane: - No. You'll die. But....
The ground trembled, and from beneath it rose dozens, no, hundreds of twisted figures. Nightmares, some mutated too. The world around them twisted, revealing many more mages who were hiding behind illusions.
Grivane: - .... Very slowly.
Willow looked around. The land itself seemed to writhe with enemies. In sheer numbers, they were outmatched a hundred to one. But numbers didn't matter.
Willow: - You think you've won?
A flash of lightning tore across the battlefield.
Leigong: - THINK AGAIN, BASTARDS!
Lightning spiraled down, racing across his armor. Caius drove his baton into the ground, unleashing a wall of glowing notes that shredded the oncoming nightmares. Selin followed, shadows whipping from her staff in lethal slashes. Willow pressed her heel into the soil, lime mana rushing outward as vines burst from the dead earth, spearing and binding anything they touched. And Aurelius, as calm as always, let his golden aura flare, the faint smirk fading as divine light flooded the field.
Leigong: - CHARGE!
The army surged forward. The mutated nightmares shrieked, claws and fangs flashing red, while the Dark Legion unleashed volleys of spells from afar, arcs of flame, shards of ice, bolts of crimson light, and shadows. Leigong's lightning tore through dozens. Lyra and Willow fought back-to-back, their magics intertwining, sound and nature fusing into a deadly rhythm.
Lyra: - Magical sound art: Sonic symphony!
Willow: - Magical nature art: Flower field of morning spring!
A garden of light and melody bloomed amid the death, petals swirling through waves of vibrating energy. Elsewhere, Caius ran ahead, music surrounding him like a protective aura.
