"Where did he… go?"
Effie's tone changed halfway through the sentence as she realized the pointlessness of her question.
The answer was obvious.
"Into the bastard's personal Mirror Realm."
Sunny gritted his teeth.
Of course…
He had known about Mordret's Ascended Ability for a long time. It allowed the Prince of Nothing to establish a physical space in the realm of reflections and store objects in it… as well as his morbid collection of vessels.
But that was not all he could place into his minor Domain.
He could pull people into the Mirror Realm, too.
Sunny had been drawn into it once himself, in Twilight. He remembered it vividly — the vast and somber expanse, a grey sky covered by stormy clouds, white mist swirling around his feet, and a radiant sphere shining like a pale sun above, its rays falling like silver pillars through the veil of clouds.
