Something was wrong.

Hisui looked up, sensing that these grounds were being encroached upon. This wasn't necessarily his home base, but he needed to get out of that water temple at some point. Of course, the heroes were awakening; it had been a while, and it's not like they could sleep forever. Not in that kind of crystal stasis, if you could call it that. But he spent all this time honing his strength and plotting with the others. There was no turning back.

He wouldn't see them, but he could sense them. There were.. four.

If they were taken out now, there would be that many fewer heroes to stumble upon the elemental temples.

It felt a bit odd. He thought he'd prepare himself to go against his former comrades, but when it came down to it, it wasn't something that was easy to do.

All he could do now was await them in the shadows, and perhaps catch them off guard. Four against one wasn't very fair, but he had spent the last five years becoming something more. But the real show had to be staged elsewhere.

He made his way to high ground, making certain not to be seen. The Calamity monsters would probably make a good distraction as any.
