The air elemental that spotted the dragons waved to the others, and then scurried back to the where the earth elementals had paused to prepare to stall defenders rushing after his troops. Upon learning of the dragons though, Draiss burst out laughing, and quickly switched the two squad roles. The four earth elementals went in, since he knew that the chromatics only had one unit that could dig, which meant the other four would be worrying at the dirt like a bunch of dogs. The air elementals would slam into the dragons that rushed his base, while the earth elementals grabbed the flag, and scattered, the squad leader dragging the flag as it moved underground, first moving to the side, neither toward or away from Draiss' base, before turning and beelining for it as fast as it possibly could. The other three elementals would move in cardinal directions, one moving directly away from the leader, another moving away from the base, and the last bolting just below the surface but slowly descending as it went.
