"Stepping through it would be dangerous. So, I would understand if I stayed behind here," she said, and I could see there would be no judgment.
It is a simple matter of risk, and it is great in this place. Still, I could see hope in her eyes.
She wants me to come with her. "Since I have come, I might as well go all the way with you to Barilis Vestige," I replied, looking at the gate in front of me.
"Thank you, Prime Arys. We will not forget the favor," she said.
I wanted to say, I am not doing it for her organization, but she might interpret it differently. So, I smiled and turned to the gate in front of us.
She walked toward the gate and took out a large bone key with red veins.
She gently inserted it inside before twisting it. Immediately, the doors dissolved, and a black swirl was produced. She looked at me before stepping into it.
A moment later, I stepped through it.
There was a darkness for a couple of seconds before I appeared in a large place.
