"Good," the creature replied, its guttural voice reverberating in the air like a deep hiss. It turned around without a word and walked out of the throne room, while the Astral Emperor watched in silence as it left.
Within her spatial cocoon, Lilian's pale and exhausted face trembled with fear as the creature walked by, no more than thirty yards from her.

She felt like she was nearing her limits, and exhaustion was taking a hold of her. She fought with everything she had to maintain her power, and the creature finally left. When she could no longer feel it's aura, she breathed out then in deeply, and almost undid her powers to race towards her father for comfort.
These few minutes had been the most scared she ever felt.
