From MC Perspective
The toxic rain stopped earlier. Now that the old man was recovering, I shifted my body and went inside the cave.
I saw the wandering wizards, bandits, and the flying salamander trembling in fear when I appeared before them. They were shocked to the core.
"The fight is over. The old man submitted it to me. Let's continue the journey now," I said to them.
Gasp!
Hearing that, they gasped in surprise. They couldn't believe what they were hearing. I looked at them one last time before leaving the cave. Then, I arrived in front of the old man.
"Tell your people to go back. They are free now," I told him.
The old man understood. When the bandits appeared, he told them to take the airship and leave. They were granted their freedom. Whether they wanted to leave for good or continue living as bandits was their choice.
I told the wandering wizards to go with them as well; I had no further need for them.
Twenty minutes later...
