When the Dark Apostle entered the Armitage and met up with the surviving giants, he became surprised by their reaction.
He expected them to feel disappointed or defeated at their latest showing. Though they had managed to kill numerous enemy phase lords, they suffered a disproportionate amount of losses in the process.

Yet despite this painful outcome, the mood among the giants was not as bad as the Dark Apostle feared.
Though the exhausted human phase lords did not exchange many words with each other, their low voices betrayed a certain degree of excitement and satisfaction.
