The entire settlement was now completely silent, eerily so, especially given the fact that just a few minutes ago there had been the sound of battle.
The shadows wrapped around Nox suddenly dissolved, letting him fall to the rubble filled ground.
Fortunately, he got control of his SE again, just moments before he could reach the ground, so he teleported away and landed safely.
He looked back to the spot where Ayla was previously engaging the Eclipsed, the exchange had raised a lot of dust, so he couldn't fully see the outcome right now.
He closed his eyes for a while and when they reopened, they were glowing golden, though it wasn't visible through the mask.
He peered through the dust cloud and the first thing he noticed was a mass of umbra energy eminating from the creature Ayla had been previously fighting.
It was now standing behind her, and Nox didn't even get the chance to think before he felt himself teleport into the dust, grabbed Ayla and teleported to safety.
