With the expectations of meeting Vaughn again once he had made his way to the Gates of Transcendence, Valyr was only caught slightly off guard once the man had appeared before him in the Gates of Awakening.
After all, the man had already done a similar thing back when he was making his way towards the Hall of Legends and Myths.
'Speaking of which… I should really find the time to take a look at the staff,' thought Valyr to himself as the memory came to mind, inwardly adorning a bitter smile on his face as he thought about how he had not taken a look at Sellifer's weapon all this time.
Faintly shaking his head as he pushed the thought aside for the meantime, the young man refocused his attention towards the man before him.
Thinking about what Vaughn had said to him just now, a trace of confusion appeared on Valyr's face. "Why the rush? It's not like I would decide to give up on entering the Gates of Transcendence after putting in this much effort."
