As chaos erupted all around him, Garland retaliated with punishment of his own. The magical attacks being thrown at him stung, but by no means did enough significant damage to slow him. Cognizant of the abilities they each possessed, just from their reactions alone, he chose to take down those of the greatest threat to himself first: the warriors.

Using Psychokinesis, he raised his arm and levitated the weapons master into the air. He flipped his hand over and motioned towards the ground, which turned the unfortunate Firion upside down and sent him crashing to the ground.

That accomplished, he charged up a round of Flare, the cruel explosions blasting around every person, including the empty Mikoto.
