Watching everyone get stronger, Karyk's thoughts drifted to Gabriel, the friend, brother and ally who seemed lost. His absence weighed heavily on Karyk's heart. He couldn't help but wonder how strong Gabriel would've been if he was alive.
Since they were both part of the same soul, Gabriel was the one who Karyk believed knew him the best. When Karyk became stronger, it was Gabriel that he wanted to share every information with, as soon as he came out of the Ancestral Temple.
Unfortunately, by the time he came out, he was greeted with the tragic information that Gabriel was dead.
He could only raise his head, apologize for not being there when Gabriel needed him. If possible, he would've revived Gabriel as well, but finding his soul was impossible.
"Can you get them a place to stay here?" Karyk asked Aliac.
