Divine Corps, Stowaways

Initially, Orion, Seth, and Zogar were confused by their words. They were so focused on their encounter and survival with the Vylkr spawns that they hadn't considered their discussion when they arrived. But now that they thought about it carefully, they realized that the Vylkr spawns were running away from an enemy.

What kind of opponent would make the Vylkr spawns take a rear guard action?

Orion, Seth, and Zogar were brought to the ground. But they fixed their eyes upward as a figure finally revealed itself, stepping out of the rift.

A woman was dressed in a form-fitting, matte black bodysuit covering her entire body except her head. A silvery exoskeleton was attached to her spine, arms, and legs. Thin blue lines of glowing, moving runes ran along the exoskeleton's contact surfaces. Behind her was a mechanical floating ring, rotating slowly and glowing with ever-changing symbols on its surface.
