Lind had been slightly off on his estimates. He had to wait for 3 months before his slot finally came up.
The delay was not out of the bounds of reason but when he found out why, he frowned. It seemed 2 of the Sovereign Tiers that went in died. At the same time!
That was not normal at all! The Ruin was dangerous but only to the crippled or nearly dead already! Perfectly healthy cultivators at a bottleneck did not just die!
Further, in the recorded history of the Ruin, no Sovereign Tier had ever died. Now, with 2 dead instantly the allied forces were in a panic.
Lind and the others were left in peace but not in ignorance. It was not something they could hide as the 2 powers backing the Sovereign Tiers came in force not a few days after they died!
An investigation only confirmed they had died in the Ruin. Going inside was not helpful as it was massive according to rumors. Some said it was a sprawling city while others reported vast forests.
