Too many people had seen the palace shitstorm to keep it under wraps. With interested parties stirring the pot, news spread like wildfire. Diliya easily dug up this much with some light snooping.
Diliya kept rattling off the intel she'd gathered as Kiri listened quietly, lost in thought.
Shadow Twins—the Shadow Realm's real deal who'd crushed Shadow Hall and grabbed the Shadow Realm's legacy in no time flat.
They'd announced their arrival to the world by whacking the Dotruu King.
Though their power was scary as hell, way beyond what her current baby group could handle, Kiri wasn't sweating them.
Because the Shadow Twins weren't dark mist monsters or fallen ones. As long as you didn't poke the bear, they rarely showed up, preferring to chill in the Shadow Realm soaking up endless shadows.
The Ember City envoy, based on what people were saying, was definitely the Eternal Annihilation Demon King—one of the King's retainers, the third-ranked Withering Knight.
