The crimson team assembled first at the center of the Magical Concourse. Byron stood rigidly, his expression tense as Garrosh, Valerius, Kallor, and Julian took their positions around him.
The five apex predators gathered in formation, and immediately the air around them seemed to crackle.
Garrosh and Valerius were already sizing each other up, calculating, preparing for the inevitable power struggle within the team.
Byron watched them both with the growing realization that leadership of this team would be a constant battle against his own members.
The sapphire team gathered separately, and Sylvia stood calmly at the center of her assigned companions. Clara, Soren, Kaelen, and Thalia positioned themselves quietly around her.
Sylvia's team moved like a unified organism, each member understanding their role, submissive to her absolute command.
