Chapitre 268: Chapter 268 - A chance to learn

After the short interlude, Aiden, Roas with the sleeping 'beauty' tossed over his right shoulder like a sack of potatoes were back on their trek, ascending the tower.

As they entered the hall above, leaving the staircase they finally saw a different scene than before. Whilst it was still a long, single corridor floor with royal garments, Aiden could finally feel several presences residing behind the closed walls. In the many rooms that were situated all the way along towards the far end where this time, instead of the usual staircase would have awaited them, only more wall stood. From the distance, they could see a large crimson gemstone, beaming with an eerie blood-red light.

The room, contrary to how it was on the lower floors, was basked in the gloom, the only source of illumination was the candleholders placed on the walls. Similar to the gemstone on the other side, all the candles were burning with a similarly colored blood-red fire.
