"Mana is mana, you can use it all universally. Do you know mana transferring actually? Just taking it out, putting it into stones and constructs?"
Miimas: ”Yeah. That’s how I’ve been charging this rifle, using my own mana. Doesn’t regenerate on its own.”
The lord looks at a clock on the wall before turning to face you all.
Elizabeth: ”Alright, let’s get to it.
The sole objective of this mission is retrieve Matis Emiel and bring him back to Vranhal, alive and intact. According to scouts, he is currently held in a prison facility in the forests approximately two miles North of Teleiat. The facility itself is heavily guarded, the majority of them are Hastae mages, with the rest being prison guards using construct armor. Antimagic and Light-Dark magic users are present, as well as a very small number of armored human forces. It’s suspected that these human forces are connected to the previous operation.
Your team will be deployed using specialized containers launched from the ballista delivery system, landing between Magusalto and where the watch tower used to be. You will then continue on foot towards Teleiat, enter the forest before reaching the city, and move towards the prison facility at a North-West angle.
We’ll be preparing a group of reinforcements, the secondary team, after your launch, they should be slightly behind. Upon reaching the facility, take out high-priority guards and leave the secondary team to distract the rest, then find a way into the facility and retrieve Emiel. Signal to the secondary team once you’re a safe distance away from the facility and return to Vranhal.
As you return, the secondary team will split, one group lagging behind to slow down any pursuers, and one that will travel with you.
Forces around the Leviathan-witch combat zone will attempt to provide cover from hostiles while you’re in the area.
Avoid entering Magusalto, there is a high chance of the unknown hostiles in the city. We currently have one scout in the area, another two are on their way.

Hanging the lantern on your belt and turning it on, you head into the city.
The layout of the city seems to have the largest towers in the center and the shorter ones at the edges, and without much between the city and Vranhal, you should be able to send them a message from the top of any towers on the east side of the city (this was observed prior to entering the city).
From inside, it's difficult to navigate even with your lamp.
Dark roads, the occasional body of a chirop mage or soldier here and there, and you even come across groups of bodies.
None of them appear burned, they've ever been cut in half, torn apart, or splattered against a wall or the ground.
You think you're in the outer area of the city right now. Maybe you'll find something else if you head deeper in?

Looks like only soldiers so far. You continue on, heading deeper in.
Several minutes of uneventful walking pass by, until you stop from the sight of something ahead of you.
A figure slightly taller than you that looks vaguely human. It wears a dark blue hoop dress, and some large object affixed to its back that looks like a large, burnt wooden greatsword with an extremely wide guard.
The creature's limbs are dainty, and its neck looks a little too long for a human. Deathly pale skin and hair that looks like it's made of a mass of long black-metal horns.
It greets you with a wide smile, staring with bright amber eyes.
Something softly pecks the back of your head.
Kazooie: "Danger. Small Ensi."

You leave the city and jog/run to Mead.
Using our Power/Agility flow, you're able to modify it so you can cover larger distances. Bigger steps/leaps, that sort of thing.
Not really increasing your ability to react, though.

Combining both into a single spell, hmm. It requires effort into overcoming brute strength as well as forcing your limbs to move faster, still resulting in double the casting.
You think you might be able to figure out how to use speed to strengthen your attacks, but it wouldn't be the same as using actual brute strength.
