Another fissure split open after the attack.
More black mist poured out.
As the air grew heavier. Breathing became harder.
Eyes burned and hands trembled.
Yet their attacks only became more violent.
A swordsman screamed as he swung.
A rogue stabbed over and over, ignoring the way his hands shook.
A mage collapsed to one knee, forced himself back up soon, as he fired another spell with blood at the corner of his mouth.
Arthur watched quietly.
He understood what they were doing.
This was not just about escape anymore.
This was close to revenge.
Against the dungeon. Against the monsters. Against their own helplessness.
So he did not interfere.
Did not step in.
They needed this.
Instead, his attention shifted.
As a familiar translucent window slid into view.
