The female elder who spoke originally closed her eyes and sighed. She didn't seem angry about being rebuffed the way she had. If anything, she felt that it was maybe only natural.
The man was right.
This was a Quicktime Event, not a Quest. There was no time for maneuvering. The fact they were even meeting right now instead of just sending their best F-tiers at Sylas was already living on the edge.
The system was allowing it for now, maybe because it felt like Sylas had chosen his timing, so to level the playing field, the Seeing Eye Guild should have some time to gather itself as well.
But this could only go on for so long.
The fact this was even allowed just went to show how unfair the world was. When had Sylas ever gotten the chance for a breather before being thrust into a Quicktime Event he had no choice but to participate in?
That said… Sylas had also personally triggered his fair share of them as well.
