866 Death Of Aegis Of The Arctic Deity

After hearing his words, Aurora observed Orion's expression beside him, and her concern grew. Frustration and anger tightened her features as she wondered why she couldn't do anything to help Aegis of the Arctic Deity and the floating territory. Wasn't there something she could do besides standing by and watching?

"You don't need to blame yourself. Aegis of the Arctic Deity would prefer knowing you're all safe rather than risking your lives needlessly; after all, he is the divine shield," Aerialia said softly, her words directed at Aurora as she shifted her gaze toward Aegis of the Arctic Deity enduring the stormy assault from above. 

She concealed her emotions and anger, deciding not to add to their worries at such a critical time.

Aerialia understood that Orion was deeply affected by her decision, so showing her own worry in addition to their already dire circumstances might lead to impulsive actions from him.
