It looked like the guardian of darkness was stuck in a dead end, but this was not so because she still had one more card to play.
That card was to spread her wings and fly into the air. It was clear to her enemies that she wanted to escape this encirclement through the sky.
In response to this move, the three cloaked figures rushed over to stop her. But by doing so, they made it so that their shadows got closer to her.
By spreading her wings, she had succeeded in creating a large shadow of herself on the ground. So it was now easier for her shadow to overlap with theirs.
When her shadow met the shadow of one of the cloaked figures, her shadow took control of that shadow and caused the shadow to grow an arm that grabbed hold of the figure.
She did this to two out of the three shadowy figures. This stopped the three of them from encircling her. So she was able to escape by flying away.
