Welthe froze… but only for a moment. Then, she threw Cassie aside and dashed toward the door, disappearing in a blur. Sunny was pushed away, rolling on the floor and almost crashing against one of the empty mirror frames. By the time he regained his balance, she was already gone.
Pierce growled, then threw a murderous look at him and screamed:
"Kill them!"
With that, he dashed out of the chamber, too, dismissing most of the Echoes to take them with him.
…The fools still hoped that they could save their men.
Or avenge them, at least.
Sunny also couldn't really be mad at Pierce for ordering their death… he would have done the same. Now that their plan to bind Mordret had failed, the next best option was to make sure that there were no more vessels for him to possess. The sentinels were already as good as dead. That left only Sunny…
However, Sunny was not one to let go of the grudge.
'Curse you, you bastard…'
