Reaching the spot where they had disappeared before to reach the prison of the Protector Raven, Daneel and Faxul both took a deep breath before closing their eyes.
SQUAWK!
This loud sound that reverberated in their ears made them smile as they felt happy that their worst fears hadn't been confirmed.
The Raven was still alive, and it was still here.
Yet, on opening their eyes, both of them saw a scene that shocked them to their core.
The Protector Raven which had looked so magnificent before now had a hole in the center of his head.
Through the hole, even the surroundings behind the Raven could be seen.
It was collapsed on the floor in a pool of its own blood, and its massive body was twitching with pain.
Running towards it, Faxul placed a hand on its wing while Daneel ordered the system to analyze what was going on.
After all, if that hole had appeared hours ago when the old man died, it was impossible for any being he knew to survive for so long.
