"Disperse. I will summon you and the Six Chief Counselors of the Scarlet Alliance in a few days," Cain declared, his voice resonating with authority.
As the words left his lips, Cain placed his hands gently on the shoulders of his sons, Rylanor and Magnus. In an instant, they vanished from sight, reappearing within the highest level of the Babel Tower.
The moment Cain materialized before them, Astrid and Shura felt their hearts surge with overwhelming emotion. Without hesitation, they rushed forward, throwing themselves into his arms. They embraced him tightly, their combined strength belying the years of longing and the depth of their love.
"It has been too long," Astrid whispered, her voice trembling with joy and longing.
"We've missed you dearly," Shura added, her emerald eyes glowing with happiness.
