"Welcome to the Tower of Trials, Summoner. I've been waiting for you."
Saying that I was startled after hearing that voice would be an understatement, I was shocked. Yet I kept my calm and remained almost unflinching. I had imagined the tower had its inner workings and mechanism, but a voice from within it was different.
It was as if the Tower was… somewhat alive? I just couldn't comprehend it well, for the first time, I couldn't really imagine how this was even made. Did the Ancient Gods even had the power to make this? I don't think so, right?
"You probably have many questions right now, isn't it? Why don't you step inside? The Trial won't begin until you agree to its terms after all. So let's talk, Summoner."
The gate in front of me slowly opened, the interior couldn't be seen, there was just white light at the other side. It was indeed strange.
"The door opened! What happened?" wondered Saphira. "Papa?"
