The moment Remides Shadowmoon's name was spoken, an eerie silence enveloped the entire Canopy Temple.
Everyone present, including Floral, who struggled to her feet while gripping the altar, turned their eyes towards the blonde High Elf woman clad in bronze-glazed light armor.
No one detected the dignity of a superior from this Shadow Queen who had ruled over Ava State for a millennium, nor did they sense the distinct pressure of a demigod powerhouse.
She stood there, exuding an aura that was no more substantial than air. Her presence was so faint, it seemed she couldn't even cast a shadow.
It was a transcendent indifference that appeared to disregard everything, including herself.
Her eyes resembled a still pool of clear water. If anyone tried to detect any emotional fluctuations in her gaze, they would likely see only their own reflection.
