The curtains in the second-floor study of the Deep Blue Residence were tightly drawn.
On the floor, intricate and twisted Runes formed a Sacrificial Array, burning with eerie green flames. This was the universal cross-realm communication ceremony of Purgatory, provided by Sargeras.
"Begin." Allen stood outside the door, but his voice echoed directly in Sargeras's consciousness through the Soul Brand.
Inside the study, the withered Soul Flame trembled before separating a faint strand of energy and casting it into the center of the Array.
In a humiliated and numb tone, Sargeras chanted the ancient Demon Language.
Space violently distorted. The flames at the center of the Array surged upward, and a massive Phantom—constructed from countless jewels, wailing souls, and white bones—was slowly projected into the room.
An overwhelmingly thick scent of sulfur instantly filled the area.
The 7th Floor Lord of Purgatory, the Greed Demon King: Mammon.
"I smell... a familiar scent."
