Of course, Ibaan did not want this petal to enter. He only wanted the same thing to happen as it did when he first came into the realm of the Dead Eye of the Fallens. Back then it wasn't on purpose. He had been scared out of his mind and had accidentally let the Morrveil Bloodroot awaken.
But this time it was on purpose. He kept teasing the petal, making it chase him again and again, never letting it enter.
However, the moment it stopped being useful to Ibaan, it floated in the air right at the line between the world inside the tower and the world outside the tower.
The petal trembled and gave off a faint glow. And suddenly, the other reddish plants around the area started stretching toward it — crawling and merging.
They slid into the glowing petal like blood being pulled into a wound.
And then — everything turned crimson.
Pure, heavy crimson.
