Bab 760: Return Of The Nether [Pt 3]

"After eons of waiting on the other side of Origin, I have come once more." The Nether declared.

His words made no sense to me, and I turned to Kazen for an explanation. However, she was so preoccupied with her thoughts and her nervousness that it didn't seem like I would be getting answers from her.

"Once I devour the Root of this world… I shall finally be whole."

The root? Did he mean this planet's core? I had many questions, but I kept silent and observed the whole thing. My mind was constantly working to see if I could find any opportunity to exploit. So far, though, I found nothing.

It was frustrating, to say the least. Frightening too.

'I don't know how, but I have to stop this thing! Damnit! What should I do?!'

All my allies were already stirring from their trance. They would be waking up any time from now, but so what? None of them could stand a chance against that thing.
