Alfred smiled. It was to prove himself. Hopefully, the rest of this band would be able to match. He'd paid a little attention to their introductions, even after being interrupted by the maid. Ideas whirled through his head, but without any input from the prince, settling on something concrete would be ill-advised. A more general plan would better fit the situation. Alfred began calling out orders, pointing to each person as he did, and continuing to the next person without waiting for input from the previous.
"Roane, get in the air and get an idea of the situation! Angelise, can you shoot from the back of a wyvern? Either way, it's time to learn. You go with Roane and stop any other archers from targeting her. If you cannot do that, switch places with Taka.
"Everybody else, until I get a better idea of the situation and who exactly we're fighting, we'll be playing defense. As the most durable of the group,
Myno,
Nyx, and
Victoria will form the basis for our front line, our first line of defense. Behind them will be
Eclisse, Cylus, and Prince Jarde. If you three see an opportunity ahead of the front, take advantage, but fall back right away, unless you like getting shot. Otherwise, attack anybody who gets past the front.
"Taka,
Senshi, the Maid, and
myself will be support. Taka and Senshi, take shots on any enemies out of our front's reach, and finish off the weakened ones.
Senshi, maid, if anyone's looking weak, heal them. Maid, you'll also be using your knives to weaken any particularly tough enemies. I'll use my magic against any armored enemies, and my sword on any that slip past the front.
"Was that everyone? Of course, I'll be making changes to the dynamic if the situation changes or our Prince has any objections. Any questions?"
Before anybody answered, Alfred pulled out a slim, wooden wand from his belt. Pressing it to his skin, he traced the tattoo on his arm. As the wand touched the tattoo, the ink began to glow a pale white. Once one complete portion of the tattoo was traced, Alfred smiled, and his eyes began to glow with the same white. He flourished the wand and called out, "Summon!"
