’And don’t let the Upyrs inside the safe zone!’Solus recognized Uragar’s and Salanoth’s energy signatures and the poisoned world energy that burned through their mana circulatory systems.’Whatever happened to me earlier, it also affected their cursed objects.’

’Oh, shit!’Quylla put the pieces of the puzzle together.’Are you telling me that the Invincible King built a fortress inside an array designed to incapacitate both cursed objects and a tower?
