The lesser phase lords failed to heed the call of the Protector of Karnak.
Not only did they refuse to stand their ground and form a united front against the superdimensional ace mech, they all but abandoned their fleets and fled in different directions!
This was an incredibly clear display of cowardice and miscoordination that disappointed a lot of their mortal soldiers!
Their morale plunged and their faith in their accompanying gods deteriorated at a rapid speed.
While most of the alien soldiers proved themselves to be professional enough to perform their duties despite this setback, they had become significantly less enthusiastic and coordinated than before. The alien spacers and officers had definitely become a lot more distracted than before.
Saint Dise fulfilled one of her objectives.
She grinned wider even as the annoying lesser phase lords continued to split further apart from each other!
