Marcellus, Aria, and Eldric made their way back to Ascendara, their steps quick and resolute. The usually serene city was now a hub of urgent activity, its streets echoing with the hurried footsteps of its inhabitants. The air was thick with a sense of impending action, a stark contrast to the peaceful reputation Ascendara usually held.
Upon their arrival, Eldric's features were set in an expression of unwavering determination. The weight of their recent encounter with Blackie was evident in his furrowed brow and the slight tightness around his eyes. Marcellus and Aria, although visibly tired from the battle, shared Eldric's sense of purpose. They followed him closely, their own expressions mirroring his resolve.
Eldric, leading the way, turned to Marcellus and Aria with a decisive tone, "We've dealt with one threat, but this is far from over. We need the strength and wisdom of our fellow Tier 4 Ascendants. It's crucial we discuss the next course of action."
