"Your Excellency Lynn, it seems you have won, and all our efforts over these years have been in vain," Yoland said after a long while, his words laced with despair.
That statement seemed to drain the little strength left in Yoland, and in an instant, he appeared to age several years.
The other wizards of the Prophecy School also appeared dejected, like souls separated from their bodies.
Their star chart was wrong; the Prophecy School's efforts of over a hundred years had become a complete joke!
"There's no need for such self-deprecation, Mr. Yoland; in some sense, your star chart is quite accurate," Lynn shook his head and said, offering consolation.
He could confirm that the law of universal gravitation still applied in this alternate world, using the celestial movement patterns observed by the Prophecy School over hundreds of years, and Lynn did not have the heart to crush these wizards who aspired to the stars.
