Arus sighed in relief as the Risen hordes were decimated and the dark creature on the hill turned away. It seemed they had won. But looking around him it seemed like there was no victory here, it looked more like one more day of avoiding the inevitable. He looked around for the holy knight to give him his thanks, but surprisingly was unable to find him. After a few moments of searching he overheard a soilder say that they now answered to Vernire rather than Holliander. Arus turned back jumping on his horse and riding outside the gate angrily. Those risen scum shouldn't have been able to kill him even with that evil creature on the hill and he wouldn't have gotten caught up in the lava explosion. Surely, surely he was just wounded and had been left behind. Arus didn't know why he felt such an attachment to the holy knight, after all they had only just met and death wasn't new to Arus. At least something of the holy knight must remain right? At least that's what Arus thought as he attempted to ride back outside and search for any trace of the knight.
