It was them

The city wall no longer seemed too far away for the group and with Lenny's golden circle protecting them, as long as they kept up this pace it felt like they could make it.

The Harpy screeched again and dove down for an attack causing, the golden ball to vibrate.

"How many more attacks do you think that thing can take?" Martha asked.

"I'm really not sure but all we need it to do is last until we reach the city," Lenny replied.

Then the sound of the Harpy attacking the golden ball happened once again, but instead of the regular vibration, a cracking sound was heard. When they looked up, they could see that the golden ball they were in was starting to crack.

"Come on just a few more steps!" Lenny shouted.
