Niara shot forward like a white lightning bolt across the swamp. The sea beasts kept attacking to try and stop her, but… something was clearly off. They should've been able to move just as fast as her in the sea, and their numbers were without a doubt overwhelming in that swamp.
But as Niara pushed forward, the attacks started thinning out.
Within minutes, she could already see the other side of the swamp. They had gone in the opposite direction from where they came.
She smiled. In front of her, in the sea, were hundreds of thousands of sea beasts. They had just been lightly attacking, only to slow them down a bit, stalling until all the beasts could gather and surround them on the path they were heading.
And already on solid ground, outside the swamp… thousands of beastly figures were waiting. Among them, Niara spotted a bull, his eyes burning with endless hatred.
