The battlefield was a cacophony of chaos and determination. James soared above, his blue dragon energy illuminating the sky like a second sun, while below, his companions fought tooth and nail against waves of cursed warriors and monstrous beetles summoned by the Pharaoh's power.
The scarab beetle, its cracked carapace oozing dark ichor, retaliated with a horrifying screech, summoning smaller beetles that poured from the sands in a black tide. They swarmed toward Amunet and the others at the base of the obelisk. The assassin reacted with feline agility, her blades whirling in a deadly dance, slicing through the creatures with precision.
"Emilia! Sasha! Cover her!" James commanded, his voice carrying over the din.
