"How is everyone?" Lith asked, eager to change the topic. "How is it possible that everyone won before us? Aside from Zogar, I mean."
Zoreth wasn't home at the moment of the attack, but a quick call and the names of a few of the hybris stationed there had reassured Lith that unless a meteor the size of a mountain hit Mogar, nothing would happen to the Professor.
"The White Griffon did the White Griffon." Kamila shrugged. She had received and read the reports of the attacks in real time. "The Upyrs never got close to the castle gates. They didn't even try.
"They played it smart and moved with caution, keeping themselves always outside of the area of effect of the main arrays."
"That's weird." Lith scratched his head in confusion. "It's a smart move, hence not something Meln would do. Casualties?"
"None." Kamila's answer shocked him. "No one died. The Upyrs escaped safely before being surrounded, and the injured Professors retreated behind the academy's walls."
