After giving my instructions, coupled with warning, to my three slaves, I turned and left their presence.
I passed by the side of Gratiana, who still remained on her knees as she held Sofia. The younger girl had regained consciousness, it must have had to do with Gratiana's aid, but no matter. I did not need to concern myself with them.
As I walked past them, I headed toward the edge of the wall which stood behind them. I stopped directly facing the badly damaged wall. Due to the Apostle's grand entry and the Guardian's attack, everything in this room had become vandalized. This wall was no different, however...
I placed my hand on the charred wall and felt it up. Its rough surface caressed my palm as I closed my eyes to navigate the several channels laid out within its structure.
