Hunting Frost Giants

Hawk led them away for a few minutes, then directed them to turn left to hit another of the weaker patrols. The stronger groups had gone toward the shout, while the weaker one had carried on their mission.

Hit-and-run was the name of the game that day, and Karl was intending to do as much damage, and make as many groups go missing as possible.

The second Awakened Group went down even more smoothly than the first had, as Karl got used to his bow, and the others got used to working together without Prince Corbin or Alice around.

Being without the Spellblades and their rapid movements and magic changed the way the group had gotten used to fighting, as did having Karl in the distance instead of right up close.

Interestingly, while Ophelia couldn't store the blade the way that Karl did, it had no resistance to her using it in combat, and it happily transferred Karl the energy from the monsters that died near it.
