"So you say they are… anchors?" Fiona raised a brow.
"Universal ones, yes." Abaddon rubbed the bridge of his nose. "With this planet as the main point of focus, they start pulling in universes in their immediate surroundings."
Lailah nodded as she swatted away Bekka's hand that was discreetly moving towards her chest.
"For ten universes, there must be ten anchors. Sevasina spoke as if only a few have been found, so the rest must be sitting unguarded and hidden."
"And these 'anointed' that she mentioned..?"
"Likely just Assan's who got too close to the anchors for comfort, so they were made to act as wardens to keep anyone else from getting too close.
Anyone else who treads near them is probably destined for the same fate. If some of those who were abducted haven't been made into them already."
