The Duel Against Obolev and the Mysterious New Arrival

Lyle, realizing that direct confrontation was no longer a viable option, began to strategize. The rebel forces, seeing their leader momentarily at a disadvantage, redoubled their efforts to exploit any weakness in the imperial lines. Soldom and Aric, seasoned commanders in their own right, coordinated the rebels to create diversions and focus on luring Obolev and the other Titled Knight closer to each other.

Obolev's ability made him incredibly powerful when facing his enemies, but he was dangerous to his allies, if they could get them close, they could use Obolev to weaken the other powerful combatants of the imperial army and take them down before joining hands to take down Obolev.
