Defeated

Emery turned to look at Atlas and the half-machine acolyte just stood there staring at him without any slight expression on his face. This made him suspicious and wondered what his intentions were which he later asked the half-man half-machine figure,

"More of your friends coming for more fights?"

The man, on the other hand only says one word, "No," which only served to make Emery even more perplexed, although also quite inquisitive about the figures who were coming to the island.

A moment later, Emery was able to get a better read on the four people who were flying toward the island. He was relieved when he later found out that he actually recognized all four figures. Therefore, he decided to dispel his fey transformation and return to his human form.

A little while later, the four came falling from the sky. There were three men and one woman in the group. All of them were dressed in the same attire as the others, the privileged acolyte uniforms.
