Bab 168: Chapter 168: Soul Devour

Aengus shook his head, realizing there was no point in dwelling on the questions for now. He shifted his attention to the dwarves and the outstretched hand of the statue where raw energy was being gathered.

"By the Shard, are you talking about this?" he asked, pointing at the statue's hand.

The ancient dwarves nodded, a hint of fear flickering in their eyes.

"Yes, my lord, it is," Sirgrid replied cautiously. "It belongs to you. We created the runic formation to gather the energy. But It's your might that the monsters are attracted here for sacrifice and ensure our safety from that person by making us invisible and untraceable."

"It belongs to me?" Aengus muttered, his suspicions rising. Something about the situation didn't feel right.

"Or perhaps it belongs to ZERO... his enigmatic soul?" he realised.

Curious and wary, Aengus cast Appraisal. The moment he did, everything became clear.
