Selma Payne's POV:
Once the forest outside of Garland City was set on fire, the most dangerous thing for the people in the city would not be the monsters, but the flames and smoke alone would kill countless people instantly!
We didn't have the manpower to put out the fire, which was spreading in all directions.
"We can't wait any longer!" I said. "Send a message to the city. Tell all the people to abandon the city and leave immediately. Evacuate to the nearest city-state!"
Abandoning the city and evacuating was our final plan. Once an uncontrollable accident happened, the safety of the people had to be the priority, and the remaining troops were responsible for escorting them to the safer city-state nearby.
However, this also meant that our last support was gone, and we could only rely on the few people we had now to fight alone.
