A man appeared before the group's sights.
His large, honey coloured eyes poked at their faces and bodies from his head which was covered by unkempt black and purple hair.
He donned a simple dark shirt and baggy grey linen pants as he spread his arms wide as if to receive Tulnas and rest who vigilantly walked into the open space after the Guild leader had confirmed that there were no traps through his expansive could sense.
Behind the man who stood a few meters before them with a welcoming gesture and a smile, a large fire was raging with twelve robed figures sitting around it, strategically placed as they surrounded a complex formation that they fed purple energy stemming from their bodies.
Tulnas narrowed his eyes.
He felt streams of energy blossoming from the formation in a different manner from what he had seen, rising through the rough ground as they flowed to different locations.
Hundreds of locations!
'This is it...!' he thought.
