On the western side was the Dormant Lord. Unlike the other monsters, he was in no hurry to enter the battlefield. Still, the significant difference in distance between the Crystal Gorge and the fortress did not prevent him from attacking.
On the northern side was Grim Warro, he had already made his move, wanting to attract as many fighters as possible to the battlefield, but this did not suit the other monsters, so the Silent Droao destroyed the black tree before the fourth force could approach the fortress.
A light echo came from the east, causing the Phantoms to raise their heads. They watched as a multitude of shadows swept through the crimson clouds, trying to reach the fortress as quickly as possible.
The Grim Warro and the Silent Droao ceased their long-range battle, concentrating on the new and last member of their fight.
Flap. Flap. Flap.
Two broad wings lifted powerful wind currents with each of their slow, majestic swings.
