Miranda Joy quickly realized the truth, though her heart filled with confusion. "But you've been here the entire time. How could you have helped them break the sealing magic array?"

Add to that his mysterious avatar, and it left Miranda Joy doubting what she was seeing.
Dean Bruce spoke calmly, "Though I've been here physically, through our previous interactions, I already figured out that the true powers within the empire had been imprisoned by you. Naturally, I arranged for someone to set them free."
