August's Hidden Strike and stealth abilities were useless against Lyriss; as a higher-level assassin, she could detect his movements and evade his attacks effortlessly.

"You're outmatched, Aleman," she taunted while spinning her daggers in her hands. "But I'll give you credit. You've lasted longer than most."

August activated Dash again, barely escaping her next attack. He noticed Drakos preparing to strike down another player and knew he had to do something drastic.

He activated his Phantom Splice, creating a clone of himself that mirrored his every move.

"Let's see how you handle two of me," he muttered before yelling to Lilo, Ezran, Boris, and the rest of the group.

"Scatter now! Get away!"

He and his clone activated Wind Surge simultaneously, sending twin gusts of powerful wind spiraling toward Drakos and Lyriss as the group fled from the path of the attack.
