For a moment, there was shock.
Everyone felt keenly those things that had wanted to do. The choices they'd wanted to make. But this last day had been too fast for any of them to do more than tread water.
Bridgit was looking at the city the moment the mana of both Maledict and Aelias disappeared in a single, flickering instant. At first, she wondered if they'd started fighting, but as they failed to reappear, she saw that the only ones fighting were the defenders of Chainsfree against the Syndicate. And with the entirety of their warriors returned from the wall, the former finally made headway in a near-visible wave through the city.
When no one spoke up, Brigit turned and addressed everyone.
"Alright... I'm sure you're all curious as to why I've gathered you all here..."
The cacophony was instantaneous.
"You did this?" "What the Hell are you talking about?" "What's going on?" "Bridgit what the fuck?! Wrong time!"
