Chapter 191: Guardian Of The Abyss

Ezra knew that time was fast running out. 

Griffin was on his trail and Helena had some plan to use the Ascension well.

He led the way out of Red's office to a secluded corner where Olivia grabbed both him and Gen, teleporting them out of the City Lord's domain.

They appeared in a flash of light inside a crypt that looked like it just survived from the wrath of graverobbers.

"What a nice place." Gen drawled as she looked around. She kicked one of the broken stones beside her, sending it skittering into the wall. "If I ever did die, I'd like to become a ghost and haunt places like this. All I need is people to visit from time to time."

Ezra looked around, noting the high density of vitality in the air. He could feel it like a tingling on his skin. It was as if an old friend was near. As if his very being recognized the vitality.

"I can feel it." He whispered. "It's calling out to me."
