"I guess that's my cue," Duchess Isabelle said. "I will leave this place to you, people." With those words, she turned into a flash of light and disappeared. Jack knew she had teleported herself into the keep and would use the portal inside to teleport to Fort Themisphylae.
"Will Fort Themisphylae be all right? Ahab's troops should still be a few hours away," Jack asked.
"Fort Themisphylae was even better fortified than here," Armstrong replied. "With Isabelle dealing with the war chief, there should be no problem. The ones that were attacking there should also be the shock troops, not the main army."
With that assurance, Jack returned his attention to the orc army standing at the edge of the Slaughterer Plains. The two armies just stared at one another.
After some time, Jack said, "Let's go and meet them."
"Huh? Why? If we stay here, we can easily beat them when they attack, right?" Paytowin asked.
