Outside the cave, Sopheor, Rast's loyal dragon, stood ready to assist but was suddenly intercepted by Orgath. The two majestic dragons engaged in an epic aerial duel, their colossal wings thrashing the air as they clashed amidst thunderous roars that reverberated across the darkening sky.

As their fierce struggle escalated, Orgath's larger size granted him a temporary advantage, but Sopheor fought valiantly despite being smaller. The battle unfolded in a tumultuous display of draconic prowess, each seeking dominance in the chaotic aerial ballet.

Meanwhile, on the rocky ledge outside the cave, Rast confronted Arnulp with swords drawn. Tension crackled in the air as they circled each other warily, their eyes reflecting a mix of determination and regret.
