The noise echoed from one of the corridors leading to his chamber where the portal sat. It was faint at first, but growing closer.
Moon's eyes sharpened. He gave Mirage a soft word before placing him back in his beast taming space.
The footsteps continued to approach and Moon stayed close to the portal, his body coiled and ready for any danger that might arise. If anything went wrong, he would step back through without hesitation.
He was stronger than most fresh Evolvers. But that didn't make him confident enough to fight anyone in the Second Sanctuary.
He was still a new fish in a sea where sharks thrived.

~CLUNK~
The noise grew louder until its source stepped into view.
A man appeared at the end of the corridor. He was tall, lean, and carried a long wooden staff across his back. He wore a light Armour which was well-maintained given the shine .
He stopped a comfortable distance from Moon and raised both hands, palms open.
