While Konrad started his Serkar Insemination Task, Diyana rose from her seat to request a meeting with Gulistan.
"Oh? Interesting. Bring her in."
Gulistan acquiesced. From the moment Diyana returned from the Tower, Gulistan had suspected her of having turned coat and considered digging through her soul. However, she reasoned that on the one hand, if she were right, doing so would alert Konrad; on the other hand, if she weren't, then she'd ensure her fears became a reality. Therefore, she refrained. Still, she placed her under rigorous surveillance, keeping her in secluded cultivation while still providing her with top resources.
But never once did Diyana voice complaints or suspicions. Why then was she requesting an audience now, and leaving on her own accord?
Gulistan wasn't allowed to ponder long, for as soon as her approval passed, Diyana appeared before her and bowed in greetings.
"Master, your disciple greets you."
