Nellara's expression as she looked to their assailants was almost frightening as she noticed they had no reaction to her words. Their lack of reaction, their immediate assault and how they were enough to confirm Nellara they weren't just common hunters or bandits. Depspite her initial intention of dealing with that matter with just intimidation, the amount of arrows being fired at them and the fact that there were already wounded soldiers between her men was a signal that intimidation and defensive formations would only take them so far.

While Nellara already knew that, due to her previous dealing with the humans, it was still a relief to know they weren't just harmless politicians and envoys to be escorted and defended. Vigdis quickly quickly grasped the situation and waited for the right time before returning fire. The humans' strange weapons, despite not being particularly loud or intimidating at first sight, were undoubtedly effective, with their projectiles flying faster than the eye could see.

[color=d3c28b]"Vigdis, Captain Zeynep, thank you for your support. Feel free to fire at our assailants without reservation."[/color] Nellara said, glancing at the humans for a brief moment before she looked at her soldiers again.

[color=d3c28b]"Soldiers, prepare fo-"[/color] Nelara began, just before she was interrupted by a worrying sound. From amidst the trees, the sound of a horn echoed, just before two frighteningly large creatures appeared, charging directly at them. Nellara didn't need to know exactly what were those creatures to know they were dangerous.

[color=d3c28b]"Force mages, focus solely on defense against the arrows! Soldiers, shields raised, tight formation, prepare for impact!"[/color] Nellara said, hurriedly as the beasts charged towards them.

[color=d3c28b]"Kareet, J'eon, do we have any information about these creatures? Vulnerabilities, weak spots... Anything?!"[/color] Nellara asked, grabbing a few of the iron beads with her hand, shooting them at the creatures using her electricity and magnetism magic to propel them at great speeds. One after another, Nellara tried to hit the head, the side of the head or any place she thought had any chance at deterring their charge.

Additionally, with the force mages focusing in defending them against arrows, Nellara was free to use her iron sand in a different manner. At the same time she shot the iron spheres, she made the iron sand form a long line in the ground, starting on her feet and continuing all the way after the shield formation made by the soldiers, forming a line just in front of them. The moment the creatures stepped or crossed the line, she would produce a strong electricity current, touching the iron sand line on her feet. Due to the creature' size, Nellara knew it was highly improbable it would be able to incapacitate them, but as long as it dazed them enough to confound or lessen the impact of their charge, it would be enough.
