Chapter 688: The Earth Mother

When the light was no longer blinding, Abaddon and Bekka found themselves in somewhere else entirely.

A beautiful, woodland grotto seated just underneath a tranquil waterfall.

The birds were chirping, the sky was blue and beautiful, and the sun was shining in perfect harmony with it all.

It was an ideal forest paradise. Too tranquil to be real.

And yet, the couple had never felt so on edge.

'A divine realm..' they realized.

"I don't like this plan at first, but I must give that Thoth fellow credit. This worked just as his design intended."

Abaddon and Bekka followed the voice towards a cliff overlooking the river bank.

Crius was standing next to a woman that neither of them had ever seen before.

She was almost entirely nude, with her only coverings being the verdant green vines that encircled her body from the neck down.
