THREAT OF THE ANCIENT ONE

Unbeknownst to the others within the dining hall, Hunter who appeared to be in shock was actually holding onto a small piece of jade-like ball. As soon as he squeezed his hand, it shattered. Without alerting anyone in this place at all, some sort of signal had been sent to the Inquisition Tower.

The Inquisition Tower, the deepest parts of the Tower.

 "Hah."

A sigh could be heard as the signal arrived and alerted the being within the dark of the danger his people were facing. He had originally given Hunter this Bead of Resonance, an item found in dungeons that has the ability to send a resonant signal to the bearer of the Grasping Clam from where the Bead of Resonance was nurtured, as a failsafe for when the Hero interfered in their business so that he could come in haste to 'speak' some sense into the hero. After all, he was a senior by thousands of years already. He was expecting the hero to listen to reason.
