Eleonor watched as Axon failed to deliver even the simplest of the relies, finally turning away from him, when Lorelai's words snapped her back to reality. Holding back the urge to punish herself for causing yet another person who believed in her to be distressed, when the one at fault was none but herself, Eleonor laid a hand of Lorelai's shoulder as she guided the Abyssal Knight, along with her sister, for the stables.

[color=ed1c24]"I apologize for causing you so much distress, Lorelai. The truth is that I'm not the hero you admire, I'm just a woman that has made many mistakes and lived her life running away from them. Yet, it doesn't mean that I can't try to set things right for once."[/color] Eleonor got one of the readied horses and handed the other to Solanne, before continuing, [color=ed1c24]"Actually, it's quite the contrary, Lorelai, I don't want to burden you and your companion with us; he's a warbeast, not a pack animal, both of you will do your best if you are not worried with being used as transportation."[/color]

[color=ed1c24]"Now, Lorei and Sol, we must go, enough time was lost, already."[/color]

Back at the Arcadian Ruins, the Twins were starting to get quite tired from the excessive heat of the Sun burning right bellow them. However what called for Sienna's attention was a much more important fact. [color=maroon]"Huh, where's Tori? I thought that she was just behind us."[/color] Before anyone could notice, Tori had disappeared, how and why was left for wonder. The fact stood that she just wasn't there anymore.

[color=maroon]"Damn, what if she entered on of the other passages? We don't know what can happen."[/color] Sienna said just before the two of them were addressed by Alex. [color=teal]"It is game, Alex. I bet we have to step on the Sun tiles to reach the other side. I think we need to wait and figure out the pattern."[/color] Linea replied in her sister's stead, as Sienna already began to try and memorize the tile patterns. Once the three of them were able to cross the chasm, they would land on another portal.

On the other side of the portal laid a chamber as dark as the void of space, in fact they would find themselves floating at the zero gravity environment, in which the only features worthy of attention were a nebula, which illuminated the place with the light of its thousands of stars, and the floating ruins of some sort of temple, or altar, right in front of them. Amid the ruins a single being, who looked like a [url=http://i.imgur.com/gazjtO0.jpg]small girl[/url] dressed in strange looking robes and holding a staff taller that she was, which ended in a globe where a veritable galaxy's worth of stars danced slowly. [color=0072bc][NON-AUTHORIZED BIOLOGICAL ENTITIES DETECTED IN THE CORE CHAMBER.][/color] The girl said in a deadpan tone as her eyes seemed to flare to life in a menacing red glare. [color=0072bc][ERECTING DEFENSIVE BARRIER AROUND CORE CONTROLLER AND PRIMARY REACTOR. BARRIERS SET, STARTING MAIN ENGINE. REQUESTING CONFIRMATION CODE, FAILURE TO COMPLY WILL TRIGGER STANDARD PROTOCOL ALFA.][/color] After another long string of robotic speech, the girl fell silent, most likely waiting for a reply.

Right about this time, a huge rumble shoot not only the ruins where Alex and the Twins were located, but the very world itself. No matter were one was on the Shattered Realms, they would feel that some ancient power had been put in motion once again. [color=maroon]"I don't know what just happened, but I have a bad feeling about it..."[/color] Sienna said as both of the twins fell silent, waiting for Alex's decision on what to do.
