All at once, as if by some contrived coincidence, three strangers joined in on the fray. All of them seemed foreign, with one of them obviously being from Magma, and the other two being from Aqua. I didn't really get much time to actually look at them, but their attacks made it clear where they were from. I keep trying to ask who one stranger is after another, with the next one attacking immediately as I did so, making it difficult for me to actually speak... this went on, with two of the gargoyles getting knocked out as a result of getting hit by a geyser, getting blasted more directly with water, or getting attacked by rabid lava squirrels. This left just the gargoyle with the shield... and left me with a few questions. "Could everyone just INTRODUCE THEMSELVES!?" I end up shouting loud enough for the shield-bearing gargoyle to actually attempt to block the noise with his shield. Everything grew quiet after my outburst, and I finally get a good look at my allies. One of them was a very white and grey-colored gryphon who may or may not be from Aqua, another was a swan-like phoenix, quite clearly from Aqua, and the final one (unless you could rabid squirrels) was a rather large, and imposing dragon... who was most likely from Magma. "Uh... sorry about that... everything just sort of got confusing, and cluttered... I didn't expect an ambush, let alone allies... especially allies from other nations," I then notice a moment when the gargoyle lowers his shield, and take advantage of it with another needle... unfortunately for me, however, this one didn't seem to deliver the poison, and only left the gargoyle itching at his arm for a brief moment.
