Nailisi and the winged skeleton grabbed onto Saleen's devil's armor. The devil's armor had plates on it as well as thorns sticking out of it. It did not seem to have anything to do with the mage wearing it. Nailisi's and the Winged Skull's hands grabbed onto one thorn each.
Saleen felt his legs give immediately after taking on the key before he was able to do anything. He quickly found himself among the stars. Nailisi and Soldier were both nowhere to be found. Saleen was frightened for a brief moment, then found himself in a huge room in an instant.
The starlit sky seemed to be little more than an illusion.
Saleen was unable to figure out how the astrologers were able to get him where he was then. His experience told him that it was not all that different from going through a teleportation portal. It seemed that no matter how great the difference between some skills was, some things did still share commonalities between them.
