Gregory attempted to struggle against the Bind but stopped quickly once he realized it was practically impossible. He hung his head in a destitute manner.

Hal barely spared him a glance as the Dome barrier that surrounded the two of them faded and he walked to the edge of the hill to peer down at the valley where so many of the Payne forces still lost their lives.
Hal could easily see his Blood knights take advantage of the situation and reap Blood essence to increase their strength and he was proud to see they were that sensible.
That said, he telepathically ordered them all to stop and they all stepped back and became observers.
In the seconds it would take for the desperate men to realize there were some of them simply standing and doing nothing, Hal leaped away from the Hill and down into the valley of fighting men.
