The Primordials led him through the entrance. The moment Max entered the mansion, a female Primordial walked toward him with a polite smile.
She looked young, though Max knew age could be deceiving in a place like this. Her hair was pale gold, her eyes clear and bright, and faint primordial patterns flowed across her skin like thin streams of light.
Her aura felt gentle, but not weak. Compared to the cold tension outside, she gave off a steadier and more welcoming presence.
"Hello," she said. "You must be new to the Godslayer's Pilgrimage. My name is Anna."
Max nodded slightly. "I am new. Arrived not long ago."
Anna looked at him carefully. "And your name?"
"Max Voidwalker."
The moment he said his name, Anna's brows moved slightly.
"Max Voidwalker."
