บท 362: A voyage

''If standing up for the man I love seems like defying you to you, then yes I am,'' Aleister was powerful and she was aware of that but there were always mysteries in the world that challenged existing powers. Marilyn's curse on Aleister rendered him weak in her presence. 

A place like Whispering Mist River was even beyond the comprehension of people like her father and every event that transpired there would be unpredictable and beyond anyone's control. After listening to the tale that Elder Hall narrated, Esme knew the deities were not the existences whom they could compare to. 

Not even their fathers as the current main gods could measure up to the extent of the powers that the deities had possessed because they were just a small part of their powers that exploded during their destruction. Hence, just the thought of Aleister stepping inside that land was akin to sacrificing his life consciously.
