After a minute of silent saluting, Zephyr brought his arm back down and turned his body away from where his comrade had once been standing. Then, fishing out a vial of black liquid from his belt, he opened it and poured out a single drop.
Just one.
Just one was enough.
Not wasting anything, he placed the bottle back into his belt, and waited as a swirling black portal sprang to life. Then, he stepped through. Athena and Aluna followed.
None said a word.
It was as if the moment of silence was still continuing—not that Finn minded. He had never been a man of conversation. If anything, this quiet was relaxing.
After walking around for several seconds in search of the portal, he finally found it and stumbled through. Thank god the other three didn't see that.
