Oriana could barely breathe. Her hands twitched against the chains, the wound on her wrist still glowing faintly. The altar beneath her pulsed with an unnatural hum, the carved runes lighting up one by one.
Her breathing was rugged. It felt like another power, another soul, an energy that were sucking her to the abyss was taking birth inside her.
Just when she thought she would accept her fate, she heard the sound behind her. Olivia had Damon had reached the door. They were surrounded by the knights guarding the area.
Oriana wanted to shout but her voice did not come out. She was struggling to hold her breath. Damon started fighting with the knights.
But as he defeated one of them, two more attacked and it continued with force that he could not handle alone. He was pushed back by their force.
"Go on! I will handle this." he gritted his teeth as he pushed one more person back. Olivia ran toward Oriana but she was stopped by Elric. The man hissed at her.
