Marking The Enemy

"It's here."

***

Pherdanta steered the ship in a curve. She only brought it to a halt when it was far to the right, behind six other ships that pointed towards the great red hue.

Replicus had spawned on deck.

The lighting in his sockets spoke volumes about how he felt towards the surging Undeath housing the slowly sinking vessel everyone was undoubtedly paying attention to.

Finally, the masked man...

Had they truly caught up to him?

Given that Eaniss' ship, which Replicus had marked earlier, was also here, it was fair to assume that the masked man truly was cornered. Eaniss surely wouldn't be fooled easily, right?

"Is it a barrier of some kind? A barrier of Undeath?" Allora asked anxiously.

"It should be. Otherwise why hasn't everyone just attacked?" Grim said.

Replicus remained silent.

That was indeed odd.
