“I think it’s heading your way!” Ezren called out a warning from the nearby alley, but it was too late.

Without so much as a whisper, the translucent elven warrior charged from the shadows, its blade passing through Kyra’s side without meeting any Resistance. It was almost as if it were just an Illusion.

The pair unleashed their magic, desperately hoping to stop the Silent Blade’s rampage…
