A Hidden Hand

The tension at the shattered expanse of the Aqua Astro Station, though still thick as a storm-laden sky, seemed to ease slightly with the presence of an enigmatic force, an unseen pressure neither enemy nor ally could define. The injured subordinates were steadily being guided away, their weakened forms supported by Lunara's sisters and Karl's men, retreating from the battlefield like the tide receding from a forsaken shore.

A little further away, Lunara, Karl, Lumina, and Nyxander stood their ground, their unwavering gazes fixed on the primordial Rhino looming before them. The beast exuded a presence of sheer dominance, its massive frame radiating an aura of supreme confidence as if daring them to strike first. A deep, guttural growl rumbled from its chest, an unspoken command that they all attack at once.
