There was a sharp cry of pain off in the distance. Normally it would have gone unnoticed, but Robin's head shot up. She dislodged her silver sword from the risen's back and immediately bolted towards the source of the screech. The tactician rushed across the battlefield, using her tomes to open up her path towards the injured boy lying on the ground.
"Morgan!" Robin called as she kneeled by her son's side. She scanned the time travelling teen's body looking for any fatal cuts. "Lissa! Maribelle! Anyone! I need a medic!"
"M-Mother, " Morgan groaned, "I'm fine." His voice was hazy, raspy and did nothing to help his worried mother.

Robin kept stomping, her brown boots now a smoky black. Even though there were no more risen left, she kept mashing her foot into the ground, shaking the earth with each collision.
