( Taylor and Adam''s family''s POV )
Because Adam, Taylor and Rocky were such good friends since childhood, over the years their parents formed a friendly connection with one another as well.
Today, as the monstrous wave officially began, they had congregated under a single roof, seeking sce and safety in unity.
Together, they watched the unfolding battle with their hearts heavy with concern for both of their children who were bravely participating in the conflict.
"The worst part about being the parents of a climber is when they go to war…." Adam''s mother emotionally said when she saw the undead tide emerge over the TV.
"Don''t worry, La dear, Rocky won''t let anything happen to our children, those three are best friends since childhood, he would surely look after them" Taylor''s mother Ang said, as she assured Adam''s mother La that nothing bad would happen to their children.
Whenever the broadcasters covered a shot of Rocky, this group of parents smiled and cheered as they felt happy to see the child safe.
Although Rocky was not alongside Adam or Taylor''s unit in this war, the parents had no idea about this and thought that because Rocky was the Champion Of Gemini, he was bound to have special privileges that would allow him to save people he cared for.
The mothers especially believed this, however the father''s were not that delusional and had some idea about how the world really worked.
They understood that it was every man for himself in this war and while they were happy to see Rocky safe, their focus still remained on the war ying out as a whole.
*CHEERS*
Eventually, as the ditch trap went off and the TV cameras caught the shot of hundreds of thousands of enemies being decimated at once, everyone watching at home cheered loudly as for them this was the greatest thing ever.
"Guildmaster Karna is a genius…. This strategy was brilliant-" Adam''s father George said, as he pped at the action, however, just then the camera caught a shot of Karna giving the credit of this strategy to Rocky as he seemed to be lost in thought.
"Ehhhh? Rocky came up with this strategy?" Wondered La outloud, as she wasn''t the only one who was shocked by this news.
Throughout the globe, every viewer watching felt surprised to find out that this brilliant strategy was nned by Rocky, as pious worship to the Gemini gods increased tenfold after this revtion.
"This is the blessing of Lord Shakuni. Rocky is following in his footsteps".
"So young yet so terrifying? Indeed a man worthy of bing the Champion Of Gemini"
These were the sorts ofments that were passed when referencing Rocky, as when the camera cut to him next, showing him overlooking the battlefield with swords tightly clutched in hands, a cheer almost as loud as the one before spread throughout Earth once more.
Rocky''s fandom seemed to grow regardless of what he did by the day, as desperate earthlings waiting for a messiah kept cing his image higher and higher in their minds.

( Back on ground zero )
After the ditch trap decimated the undead forces was when the real fight began.
Undead mages, shamans and the true elites of the undead army marched out with their legions, as these forces exerted a pressure that waspletely unlike their predecessors.
[ Mud Block ]
[ Earth Mover ]
[ Terraform ]
Using Earth elemental spells to fill the ditch and create a path for the undead armies to move forward, the undead mages created passageways and bridges that could carry their forces safely to the other side.
"Target the bridge, don''t let them cross easily-" Pdin Patrik instructed, as the backlines over extended their usual attack range and shot long attacks to damage the make-shift bridge.
[ Wind Block ]
[ Protective Veil ]
The enemy undead mages, sensing the impending danger, blocked the rain of long ranged attacks using spells of their own, equalizing the ying field.
With their entry, the tide of the war became more even as they could provide nominal protection to their advancing troops against long range attacks of humans.
Slowly but steadily, the undead forces marched past the ditch, through the minefields and into the st zone, where the skills of the undead mages were put to the real test.
Sessfully protecting a few of their legion and unable to protect a few, the undead mages advanced slowly and to the best of their abilities under the heavy fire by the humans.
Nheless, with about 40% of their legion intact, they did make it past the st zone and into the buffer zone as the first undeads finally broke past the human attack barrage and rushed towards the actual front lines.
"ELITES! PREPARE FOR BATTLE-" Karna shouted, as all the True Elites troops, hidden behind well established ditches and spikes, prepared to physically fight the iing undead tide.
*SCREEECH*
*SCREEECH*
At this moment, out of nowhere, undead wyverns and two massive bone dragons emerged from the tower portal as a massive new threat emerged.
[ Dragon''s Fear ]
All those troops, especially the news ones that nced towards the bone dragons, felt paralyzed in fear, as the newbies on the front lines became incapacitated to fight their approaching enemies.
"Eyes on the opponent, eyes on the opponent, don''t gaze at the sky" Karna shouted, trying to prevent new kids from making the mistake of falling into dragon''s fear, however, he was toote to give this call.
Curiosity got the best of most kids, who got frozen in fear and became easy pickings for the undead.
*sh*
*sh*
*Crash*
Some newbies died, some veteran killed the approaching opponents, however, despite being dug-into positions, the human front lines faltered at the critical moment as the enemy was able to find a breaking point right from the get-go.
" Single de style, ck sword, [ Angel''s kiss ]" Dered Neatwit, as with a single sword strike, he alone took down the entire wave of undead that had broken past the front lines.
"HOLD THE LINES, ELITES, DON''T LET THEM PASS EVEN OVER YOUR DEAD BODIES '''' He shouted, as he scrambled to cover the breach.
