Valentius surrounded Freydis with fire, as Brutus took them further and further away from her!
"Marek won't be enough!" Albert yelled, only for the winged wolf to spread his wings wide and fly up.
To a tall cliff, Albert realized. Far enough, they could provide some ranged assistance, but not close enough that they would be forced to dodge a fireball!
"Formation! Horse archers, circle! Archers, to me! Legionaries, turtle around Marek!" Valentius didn't have time to pay attention to Albert!
This was a ghost coming back as a Lich! Forget about the forest! The whole continent would end up a wasteland!
"Valentius…!" Albert protested, even as he was forced to put up a barrier.
"Albert, not now!" Valentius scanned his surroundings as he sprang from his mount.
Rocks. Dry ones.
There was no water to be found around here.
But…
There was water! In the earth, in the plants!
"Albert, you need to…"
Valentius saw that Albert was already forming a barrier around Marek.
