Amiya led the way, map clutched in one hand while her other gripped her weapon. Marie stayed close beside her, the Star Jewel's golden light continuing to part passive roots.
Behind them came the fighters Reinhard, Joseph, Janus, Casseo, Veryn, Honor, and now Dune.
Roots lashed out from both sides simultaneously, attempting to catch them in a pincer. Dune's great sword swept through the left side, golden shockwave obliterating the tendrils before they could close the distance.
Janus crimson claws punched through the right side, expanding inside the wood to shatter the attack from within.
Night Terrors began appearing, such as the crow-like variants that had caused mental anguish earlier. Their high-pitched screams started building, preparing to unleash another mental assault.
Dune pointed skyward again.
