It was strange. There was no fear to find because there was no mind to read. Rather, it was a complex series of actions and reactions depending on the situation. No mind. No soul. Just icy destruction.
After she dodges it, the mage makes the iceball explode like a grenade, sending ice shards flying behind her. He then fires another one, but Akane shoots it before it can reach Hunter.
The yeti tries to slam his fists down together on Robby, but Jasmine blocks it with her shield. Then, Robby...
"I guess not." Akane said.
Robby and Jasmine go after the yeti.
"Looks like our biggest threat is that mage." Aurora said. "There's something off about him."
"Isn't that yeti from the Ice Domain?" Aurora asked.
"Yeah, and if I had to guess, I'd say it's the other reason Pridius got the runestone from there for us." Robby answered.
"Well you know how the saying goes. They bigger they are, the harder they fall!" Akane said as she shoots a fire arrow...
"I'm sure he did. This is likely just to get us to get overconfident." Jasmine warned.
Surely enough, the city starts to freeze as a mage looking like Pridius comes in riding a giant ice turtle with a yeti behind him.
"Nice!" Robby said as he knocks an ice soldier into a pack of other soldiers. "Be careful when y'all get here. It's getting colder by the minute."
Meanwhile, Tyson sees Pridius waiting on him.
"You showed up alone. I respect that." Pridius said.
"Of course, and I see you've done the same."...

"I figured he would pull a stunt like this." Jasmine said.
"Of course." Robby added. "Come on! We've got ices to kick!" He runs out and gets into his jet.
Tyson nods and gives Hunter a kiss. "I shall return." He opens the scroll and it glows, turning into an icy blue light that creates a portal to Pridius' home world's battlefield. Tyson walks through it. Once it closes, a larger portal opens in Edgewood where an army of ice soldiers come walking out.
"Days!? Oh no! You all need food!" She said. "Think Eris, think......aha!" She conjured a botanical greenhouse and grew a few fruit trees. Doing so drains her a bit more than normal, but she doesn't mind. "There we go."
Maya feels herself being lifted off the ground again. This time, it's by Xander and not one of the machines. As they escape and Machinos emerges, Maya's eyes widen. "My goodness.....I just had to go looking for trouble...." She stares at the massive machine looking directly at her. A chill runs...
