Carlos's frown deepened.
"Which district did they set up the ritual in?"
Black Sinner passage rituals needed tons of intelligent souls as sacrifices.
This meant when the ritual kicked off, they absolutely couldn't stay hidden.
"We've gotta keep enough mobile fighters in reserve."
Carlos was starting to get an idea.
As long as they had enough mobile fighters, they could tell Black Sinner mind games to go screw themselves.
"Me and Rock Sand City's bigwigs are all part of the Black Sinners' game plan. The key to breaking out of this mess is bringing in heavy hitters they don't know about..."
Without even thinking about it, his sister—who was closest and showing up soon—was Carlos's only shot.
"Sis should be here any time now..."
....
Right about then, on the road to Rock Sand City, a cavalry unit was pushing through the night.
"Carlos! You better wait for your sister!"
