341 - The Eye of Fire

Aether sent a mental message to Ryan: "Four guild platoons are advancing, continue to the center of the crater as we approach."

Ryan received Aether's mental message with an almost imperceptible nod. "Understood," he replied in his mind, sensing the raid strategist's presence. "Come on, we have to continue to the center of the crater," he said aloud, addressing Ishtar and Eris.

The trio advanced cautiously, their footsteps echoing on the uneven, lava-filled terrain. The heat was almost unbearable, but the determination in their hearts kept them moving. They knew that every moment was crucial, and that any hesitation could be costly.

As they approached the center of the crater, the monsters became more numerous and ferocious. Flaming skeletons continued to emerge, accompanied by magma titans and fire bats attacking from all directions. Ryan, Ishtar and Eris fought tirelessly, their coordinated attacks creating a deadly ballet of light and shadows.
