All the Extraordinary Being guards around Hibell had fallen in rounds of decapitation actions; now she was standing alone, sorrowfully watching the Defector Army fighting with her comrades.
If it were in the past, Hibell would undoubtedly curse these traitors, questioning them heartbrokenly about their betrayal.
