The global battle intensified, and Arin's group faced extreme pressure from the main enemy's attacks. On one front, a key team ally fell to a deadly strike.
Lyra, with tears in her eyes, said,
"I can't believe… they… are gone."
Kai shouted in anger and despair,
"This battle is merciless! Any moment, one of us could fall!"
Arin took a deep breath, trying to maintain calm,
"We cannot give in. Even with the loss of a member, our unity and tactics must continue."
The Silent Sorceress raised her hands in focus,
"Loss does not weaken us; it forces us to fight with greater determination. The enemy thinks fear and grief will weaken us, but that's a mistake."
The group, despite initial grief, regrouped and regained their morale. They realized that the global battle would only continue through sacrifice and unwavering resolve, and every moment demanded readiness.
