Liam blinks rapidly, his eyes struggling to adjust to the sudden pitch black that envelops him. Just a few meters ahead, an eerie green and purple glow begins to pulse, faint at first, then stronger.
There's a silhouette of a woman standing in front of it, the glow outlining her figure like a strange backlight.
Slowly, the eerie glow expands and twists, forming into a six-meter-wide, twelve-meter-tall gate.
Arthur and Liam watch in frozen silence as the glowing arches take shape.
"That's… a gate! There's really a gate here!" Liam finally exclaims once he snaps out of his shock.
Arthur frowns. It's good news, but also very bad news. If a gate is here, it could be the source of all the disappearances. But something still doesn't sit right with him.
"Wait." He lifts a hand slightly. "Something doesn't add up."
"What more proof do you need, Arthur? Everything she said so far is true!" Liam shoots back, annoyed. He thinks Arthur is still doubting Aldriana.
