Darren gritted his teeth, pouring more energy into his summon in a last-ditch effort to break free, but Freya's relentless control of the World Tree power overwhelmed him. The beast let out a final, defiant roar before collapsing under the weight of the roots.
Darren raised his hands in surrender, nodding in respect. "You win this one, Freya."
Elder Valen nodded as he called the next pair.
