Crucially, all the wyverns appearing on the battlefield were adult specimens, all ferocious beings.
In this region, after the two great clouds of beasts collided, shrill screams and beastly roars echoed ceaselessly.
These sounds pierced the heavens, as if the sky itself had been slashed open and was weeping.
Leonidas had seen such scenes far too many times, and Vexis beside him felt not even a shred of compassion.
"The time is about right. You preside over the summoning formation here. I'll take care of those two big birds."
Leonidas let out a roar, spread his leathery wings, and flew off.
Vexis raised her staff, and with her feet as the center, a massive summoning formation rapidly took shape.
Any Aarakocra that tried to attack her were sent flying by black, ghostly skulls the moment they got close.
The summoning formation activated successfully in a very short time. Those wyverns and Aarakocra falling to the ground awakened from death, returning from the darkness.
