Michael decided to split off from the group and head on over towards the castle grounds.
He floated over the entire town of Batchrock, seeing all the chaos and the battlefield between the soldiers and the insurgents.
It was clear that these citizens, although plenty brave, didn't defeat these soldiers all by themselves. He saw evidence of large magic spell residue in the air, something that was probably in the 5 to 6-star realm.
Finally, he passed over the castle moat and ended up in its giant front doors.
It was at that moment that the ground shook. He felt the propagation of power beneath his feet.
This was not an earthquake. There wasn't any mana at all from this disturbance, meaning only one thing: this was due to an Aubility.
Michael continued through the castle interior, passing by the burnt flags and paraphernalia of Flarecorp strewn about on the walls and up on the ceilings.
