After a long while, the council meeting ended, but Orion and the elders remained in the chieftain's tent.
"Sister, who is this Lord of the Four Domains, Gareth?"
"And what is this 'myriad races invasion'?"
As soon as the other elders left, Orion couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked the questions that had been bothering him.
Clymene made a calming gesture, signaling Orion to be patient. After drinking a bowl of water, she began to explain.
"This is my fault. I just recently advanced to Alpha-level and completely forgot about the things our father once told me."
Clymene sighed. Though caught off guard, there was more excitement than worry in her eyes.
"Orion, Rendall, what I'm about to tell you is something only the chieftain has been privy to in the past. You must not spread this information."
"The Black Forest is vast, but the world beyond it is even larger!"
"Do you know anything about the world outside?"
