Raydin and his son looked at the attack on Dawnstar in the distance, standing atop the highest spire of the College, beside the giant soul gem that focused a defensive weapon.

"Tactical retreat once I caught wind of the enemy. If outmatched, I will not pursue the battle since it's pointless. If not outmatched, it still places me in a better position for an ambush and it saps the enemy strength" replied Siris, rather calmly, without much thinking.
