When Arun emerged from the gate, the scenery was completely different. The desert was gone and replaced by lush forests in the distance.
His family's manor could be seen a few hundred meters away from the gate. Its appearance exuded luxury, given its size and grandeur.
A beautiful golden fountain spewed water nonstop in the middle of the huge garden.
Following his appearance, a richly dressed tier four mage ran to him and said. "Welcome back, young master. We expected your arrival a few days ago. You made your father worry."
"We had some trouble on the road. I need to report to Father." Arun's voice was grave and commanding.
The mage nodded, alerted by Arun's seriousness, and signalled him to follow.
After a short walk, they reached a large building located next to the manor. The mage opened it and revealed an interior filled with magic circles, cauldrons, wands and other magical items used for alchemy.
