I sighed as the others dissolved into starlight, dismissed from this realm with a wave of my staff. As I was about to follow them, the spirit's voice resonated through the ethereal space.
"My Lady, would you remain with me a moment longer?"
I paused, a small knot of unease forming in my stomach. The spirit hadn't uttered a word since questioning Gayron, but now that we were alone, it descended to stand before me. Fable, loyal as ever, remained by my side, his presence a comfort in the wake of my emotional outburst. But what could be so important that the spirit didn't even want Korra to hear?
"Yes?" I asked in a small voice.
"What is this realm called?"
I blinked, my tail twitching in surprise. "Sorry?"
"This realm. What do you wish to call it?"
"I'm not sure I understand. Isn't it just a gate? Won't it break apart the moment I leave?"
