Aesa sighed as the chaos unfolded around her, her gaze steady while the beasts continued to tear into one another without restraint.
She did not rush immediately, but the moment several of them turned toward her with the same violent intent, she moved.
The air around her changed in an instant, temperature dropping sharply as frost spread outward from her position.

Other beasts lunged through the freezing mist, but they never reached her.
Their movements slowed, their bodies stiffened, and with a simple motion of her hand, their forms shattered under precise bursts of cold force.
She walked forward without pause, her presence cutting through the battlefield as if it did not bother her at all.
