"When I got your report, I couldn't really believe it, but...you went through a war, huh?" Ashur said the moment Hagalaz's squad members entered the tree fortress, glancing past the closing wall to the piles of burning corpses at the far side of the valley.
"We'll have to face it sooner or later anyway; now we have an example," Bassena looked at the squad members who, just like anyone else, stared at the shards and the dome with parted lips and pure amazement. "How's the journey?"
"Thanks to you, it was even easier than dungeon raiding--except for the miasma level and the perpetual darkness," Ashur shrugged and pointed at the crates and chest they brought. "Where should we put this?"
"Just pile it near the wall; we'll take everything to the ruin tomorrow anyway. Give your recording to Kei, and we'll send the report together. Have you guys eaten?"
