As he lay there, helpless and alone, Aiden heard a voice in his head. Lord Kieran's voice called out to him, telling him to wake up and open his eyes. Aiden struggled to do so, but eventually, he lifted his head and looked around.
"Kieran!" He exclaimed in disbelief.
Aiden couldn't believe what he was seeing. When Lord Kieran died after fighting the Red King, they almost lost hope that he would return. Yuri was able to keep a little mana of their High Lord, and Iris used all her magic in an attempt to revive him.
The High Lord fell onto his knees, feeling extremely weakened from being confined within the crystal for so long. He clutched his chest painfully as he struggled to keep his consciousness. He could feel his magic growing, but something significant was missing.
Aiden immediately rushed to his side, supporting him as he struggled to stand up.
"Are you alright, my lord?" Aiden asked, concern evident in his voice.
