Theo and Emily were again led into the guestroom.
But this time they were issued a warning.

The door closed.
"Why do I get the feeling that we're actually not guests here?" Emily wandered aloud.
"Funny, I had the exact same feeling."
If anything, the way they kept locking the two up, was more akin to perhaps being treated as criminals or captives rather than being guests, much less royal guests.
Maybe this is how things worked in another dimension?
Or maybe-
But this also gave Theo more time to focus on the journal and learn more about the systems.
He had to- and he had to prepare for the eventual showdown.
Apparently, at any given time, exactly 63 system bearers existed. Five distinct systems from all of the 12 supreme gods and goddesses while 3 lost systems came from unknown backgrounds.
