Small Steps

JEAN LYMINE'S POV:

Our advance into Fei territory had been overwhelmingly successful over the past few weeks, but one look at my scout's face as he rushed into the tent told me our victory was short-lived.

"My lady, we've spotted Fei reinforcements arriving from the south," he said, his short breaths gasping for air reinforcing the severity of the information.

I said nothing, tapping into the neutral bind around me as I attempted to sense the presence of my fellow S-ranks. A wave of energy washed over me, my eyes shooting open. This was the power of two S-ranks combined, and considering we were on the Eastern front, there were only two individuals who could resonate with such power.

The Vye twins.
