At the entrance of the temple stood two massive Lycan statues, each holding a glowing ball that shone like a piece of the moon.
Dark clouds circled the building, and bright bolts of lightning tore through the sky. Yet just past the edge of the temple grounds, the sky was quiet and had normal blue skies.
This strange sight made the temple feel even more mysterious.
Inside, Ninzu sat cross-legged on the floor, holding a staff in her hands. Her eyes were closed. Across from her sat Leila, the girl Jasmine and Kael had rescued. She also had her eyes closed.
A priestess walked into the temple and stopped beside Ninzu.
"You were right," she whispered. "Two demons have been killed by our demon traps."
Ninzu's white eyes snapped open.
"They have sensed her presence," the priestess continued. "I'm beginning to wonder if removing the veil that covers her is a good idea."
"We don't have a choice," Ninzu said softly. "We need to find her."
