Dread encroached upon Lorelei's soul. Her heartbeat rose to insane levels as memories of recent loss flowed into her mind.
The figures of three shadows ravaging her little kingdom as they laid waste to whatever they laid their eyes upon. Memories of her pitiful flee resurfaced as the three shadows chased after her with amused smiles and destroyed everything she had built.
Her instincts flared as she was stuck between a fight or flight response. Her figure was frozen for a solid second as she tried to find a way out.
But to her misfortune, there was none.
"Hahaha!" devilish laughter echoed across the hallways of the fortress as the voice came closer.
Lorelei gritted her teeth as she was frustrated by her cowardice.
"I will not back down!" she roared with feral fervor as her mana flooded the throne hall, shaking and breaking all the fragile furniture.
