There was a little stunned blink of surprise from Morag’s one exposed eye, as he stared down the corridor and heard a voice shouting his name with a few insults. ‘I’ve come to repay the hospitality you showed my boy last month’…? … “AH!” A grin of excitement spread, not that anyone could see his mouth under that mask, as Morag glared ahead realizing just who was facing him in here. “… Oh, this is going to be a pleasure. I will finally be able to stomp your little band to smithereens, without any dumb citizens I once couldn’t touch defending your every move…!” 

… Though, there were more than just him. There was the prince of Grado, wasn’t he? Morag grinned even more at that which he said… “… Your ‘friend’, you say? That does it. Grado Royalty has been secretly supporting the bandits stealing your own wealth that we mercenaries had to deal with. Then you had all this coming. … Or maybe you don’t even know who your ‘friend’ here is…?” Morag made a diabolical little chuckle. “Guess that doesn’t even matter.” The leader of the Spike Guild then directed his mace towards Alvin, a little gleaming excitement in his eyes. “You won't be leaving here alive. I’ve always wanted to snare myself a royal…” … “Or two.” He added, seeing Marwood riding rapidly towards him.

Due to a mixture of seeing the prince of Renais riding towards him and being fully prepared for action, Morag had no problem nodding his head a bit with a command. The Fighter to his right dashed forward, axe at the ready, to meet the currently lance-wielding prince. Since Morag wasn’t even intending on facing that match-up at that time, he was able to get out of the way of the fast stab while the axe-user ran up to slice diagonally upwards at Marwood where he was seated on his horse. “… Ha! If they want to savor my death, LET THEM TRY! I’LL TEACH THEM WHAT IT MEANS TO BE OVERCONFIDENT!” Spouting a perhaps ironic line, Morag grinned and dashed right past where he assumed Marwood would be busy with the axe-fighter towards the other front line, holding his mace-sword-style on his right and preparing to dodge arrows and swing for damage, excited to be facing combat…!

Meanwhile, there was an injured enemy Soldier who was hiding behind the wall intending to let the representatives of Grado pass by, and he breathed out in relief at most of the enemies just rushing by… then his eyes opened in surprise as he felt his lance grabbed, and turning to look at the cause he suffered a thunder-charged punch to the face, causing him to fly backwards without his spear, completely out of commission and down. On the opposite side, an injured Mercenary who was doing the same thing flinched and was reaching to lift his sword to guard in case the same thing happened to him, but a shadowy magical punch from nothing charged out of the ground and hit into his torso from all directions at once straight through his armor, and the man fell out cold to the ground. “… Excuse us.” Aldo muttered with no feelings of remorse in his voice as he rushed past the downed Mercenary whom had just been subjected to Flux.

Oh, and Sion ran over a few more soldiers. Not much left up there… In fact, he’s right at Rioga’s doorstep…
