Last Obstacle
Standing directly in front of the gates, Leona easily pushed them open. The scene that greeted her and Oliver was a group of holy knights, all suited in white and golden armor. Alongside them stood a massive group of mages, dressed in white and purple robes. Most of them clutched their arms around their staffs, their uncertainty could be seen in their eyes as they prepared for battle against the enemies before them. For a moment, there was absolute silence as Leona, Oliver, the holy knights, and the mages simply gazed at each other.
"Stand down," a voice suddenly cut through the tension. It belonged to a woman with brown hair and green eyes, standing at the center of the holy knights. She was none other than the captain of the holy knights, Emaralis. She stood ready, clutching her sword, prepared to put an end to Leona and Oliver's advance toward the castle.
