Damian spent two days straight contemplating how to make this work. It had to be him who activated the waygate and created a connection to another soul. Tristan was already registered as one, and they weren't sure if they could overwrite that. But even if that wasn't an issue, how could he explain all this to Vidalia and convince her to let him use the waygate?
Being hailed as a hero had its perks. Even Aramis, despite his contempt, had stopped pressing for further punishment, conceding that Damian had suffered enough. However, Aramis had made it abundantly clear that he would never forgive him for killing his brother. The intensity in Aramis' eyes had left no doubt in Damian's mind that he meant it when he said that to his face. Still, with that matter unsolved, Damian spent the entire day making calculations, thinking of ways to gather enough mana using parchments to create the massive waygate runic circle.
