A large blue gate appeared out of nowhere with a wave of sparking lightning. Cain pulled out of Lilia and looked back, "It's opened sooner than I thought."
"An hour was an estimated average. It could've taken less or longer depending on where the gate was." Lilia replied, flicking her fingers and releasing a wave of cleaning magic. "Let's check it out."
Cain clapped his hands, and their clothes appeared on their bodies, "Let's not waste any time," He said as Morena faded into his body.
With a tiny jump, Lilia started floating beside him with waves of magic rushing out of her body. "Let's go. I'm the guardian of the gate, so let me take control from now on."
"Go ahead," Cain replied, and several eyes emerged on Lilia's body, "Don't move." She said, her body melting into a dark-green blob that consumed Cain's body, turning him into a black silhouette of eyes, stars, and gushing magic.
How did he get in there? That's a whole story that's still being told. And everything is Connected.
