Cyneah's side also fared well with the swarm of puppets. Unlike Aki, whose moves were limited to those stored in his program, Thorn showcased his resourcefulness, using a plethora of moves and even resorting to Draconic spells to combat the puppets, a testament to his strategic thinking and adaptability, even when outnumbered.
