LEADER ALBANUS POV
Standing deep within Draego, I found myself at the heart core, a swirling mass of energy that pulsed with life and power. The air was thick with magic, and I felt its presence before I saw it. Bowing in greeting, I closed my eyes and centered myself, feeling the warmth radiate from the heart core as it rumbled softly in response to my presence.
"Why have you come to me?" the core seemed to ask, its voice echoing in my mind. I took a moment to gather my thoughts, knowing that it was aware of my intentions even before I spoke.
"I wish to travel to the realm," I confessed, my voice steady but filled with emotion. "I want to give Glenda a better life. She hates being confined to one place, and I owe it to her to make up for all the wrongs I have done."
The core rumbled again, a low vibration that resonated through my chest. "I know your heart well, Luka Roman," it replied, and I could sense the ancient wisdom behind its words.
