The room of glowing crystals.
It was the kind of sight a person can never forget, even if they only see it one time.
How lucky to be locked away in such a dazzling space. In reality, it was no better than an elaborate prison.
Just before the door closed, stealing away the last bit of candlelight from the hallway, Soren's voice echoed back into the chamber.
"I'll bring a friend for you later on, so look forward to it."
Whatever that meant.
Left alone, Kel paced nervously back and forth. Just what was Soren playing at this time? And was the emperor alright?
What should her next move be? Did the emperor manage to escape those soldiers?
Maybe she should look for a way out. Hopefully, the emperor was safe.
"ARGH!" Kel crouched down, grabbing at the sides of her head. "Why can't I stop thinking about him?!"
