A panic spread through the horde as survival instincts took hold, but there was no escaping the waves of acid. A deep sizzling sound hissed in the air and a steam rose up from the melted flesh and rubble.
Many of the soldiers managed to protect themselves or get to safety, but not all of them could escape. Rienn looked away from the fallen with a sad expression and turned her gaze to the ocean's surface far above. Raising one arm the countless bubbles carrying the citizens of Nereid flowed up and around her in a spiral. She watched them ascend while maintaining the flow of mana.
Once the last encapsulated citizen was above her, Rienn followed after them all using the bubbles under her feet to propel her upward.
