Zephan's face tightened with the same questioning doubt. "Could it be the heat? It must still be bubbling down there."
The answer was not what he wanted.
"No. It's more rhythmic and familiar." Throgar's features turned grim, the lines around his mouth setting. "It feels like a heartbeat."
"Heartbeat?" Zephan clenched his teeth as he realized this Nether Path Spark was not something that would die so easily.
"How is the Earthshaker's situation now?" he asked while another silver spear appeared in his hand and began to charge for a second attack.
If the Blood Dragon's regeneration was as strong as its defense, they needed Liora's strength again to pin it down.
"She is recovering, but not fast," Throgar said.
Though he had healing skills, he was not good at physical healing, so they mostly had to trust Liora's own natural recovery.
"And where is Adyr? I have not seen him since this thing appeared," Zephan asked, feeling the situation slide out of hand.
