However, even if I were to change my position, there were things I needed to consider.
Before making the switch to close combat, I quickly assessed the team's positioning. If I moved to the front, someone needed to cover Lila, and the formation would have to adjust accordingly. "Everyone, shift the formation," I ordered, my voice steady but urgent. "Elena, take the rearguard position and cover Lila. I'll take your spot in the front. Gareth, support Kurt more closely."
There was no hesitation in their response. The team had grown accustomed to making these adjustments on the fly. Elena nodded, stepping back from her mid-range position. As a battlemage, she was versatile and could adapt to both offensive and defensive roles. She moved to cover Lila, her staff glowing with energy as she prepared to cast defensive and support spells from the rear.
