Feli landed in front of the center tower, where Easton and the rest of the council are waiting. The four of them look agitated, nervous that the hero of the world tree might not make it in time to save the foundation of the realms.
"Darius, finally." Easton immediately approach the young man as he dismounted the griffin's back.
"We must hurry, we don't know what the enemy will do to the world tree," Easton added, gesturing for Darius to follow him.
Easton pushed the doors open and lead the way.
Darius, Feli, and the council walk along the halls and down a series of stairs.
Until they reached the lowest level of the tower.
The place is dark and empty, it was silent and the air is crisp and dry.
It felt so familiar that the place reminded Darius of the castle in Dead Swamp.
"Come inside," Easton said as he opened the door.
Darius was expecting a pitch-black room and he wasn't entirely wrong.
