All the party members turned to the ravens that flew past them delivering the message, and a look of immense relief washed across some of their faces.
When one of the ravens reached where Aika had just finished killing the last Saurian near her, it landed on her shoulder. Then it nuzzled her neck, repeating, "Camp, camp."
Aika, who was breathing heavily, looked at the next wave that was almost upon them. Then she replied, "I know, Arlo."
She then turned to see that that the others had already begun running as fast as they could, retreating back toward the direction of the stony plain.
The only people who had not retreated were Cedric and Audrey, both of whom were currently downing mana elixirs to replenish their reserves.
When Aika saw that Cedric was done drinking his mana elixir, she shifted into a raven and took to the sky, flying back toward him with Arlo banking closely at her side.
