"What!? The Gods of Light are returning?!" After hearing the news that left Shamara unable to finish her meal, Negris also felt an unexpected knot in his stomach.
"Yes, or perhaps it's not a return, maybe it's a rebirth, or something else. I can feel a power growing stronger, contesting my control over the Power of Light," Shamara said.
Negris had to take Shamara's words seriously. She was, in a strict sense, a false god who had stolen the belief of the Gods of Light. Despite her being somewhat incompetent, and rather unlucky to have crossed paths with the 'True God' twice, she was part of the Belief System of Light. Her senses were unlikely to be wrong.
"Could there be another false god sensing the absence of the Gods of Light and trying to steal their divine power from you?" Negris suggested another possibility, immediately suspecting Anthony.
