The Goddess of Life was taken aback to find Gabriel before her eyes. He didn't look Undead. Instead, he simply appeared to be a young man, who was sleeping peacefully.
Unlike Karyk, his body wasn't covered in the dark patterns of Death. Instead, he only had one mark on the back of his left hand.
The Goddess knelt beside Gabriel and examined the strange mark on his hand, trying to determine its meaning. As she studied it, she noticed that the mark began to glow softly, and a feeling of warmth spread in the surrounding that was accompanied by a strange aura.
As the mark of Light and Darkness shone, Gabriel's eyelids flickered. He slowly opened his eyes, feeling a surge of energy flowing through his body. When his gaze met the Goddess of Nature, he realized that something within him had changed.
