Too easy

"He looks like he is heading straight here, doesn't he?"

While what I said was pretty much a fact, the trouble wasn't as immediate as it appeared to be when I saw the signs of it brewing. 

For whatever reason, the golden figure opted against making a huge mess and just cutting through the lines of gathered celestials and divines. Instead, it moved swiftly… but within reason, jumping from one opening to another to get through the huge crowd of humans. 

'I'm running out of time,' I calmly made a mental note. Then, I looked around the hill. 

Karlan, Madam, Leinei, Fay and me. 

As little as I knew about their backgrounds, they appeared like a force just right to stop the local ruler in his tracks, giving me just a little bit more time. 

'With how things are, I'm too weak to even look at him, given how I barely could resist Karlan's pressure,' I thought, only for my eyes to twitch as I looked back towards the human camp out in the distance.
