True Heir (Part 2)

Solus wanted to keep yelling but she felt weak. She tried to Spirit Blink but there was a space-compressing array stopping her.

Solus needed but one glance with mana sense to know she had no chance of escaping from M'lak, let alone the World Tree. Both fight and flight would just delay the inevitable.

"Fine." Solus dropped the ring to the ground and the tower of Menadion rose like a mighty tree.

Her mana core stopped bleeding. The combined effect of the tower, the Sage Staff, and the Fringe would even restore her mana over time but without a host, her life force would not recover.

'Marvellous!' The Yggdrasill studied the tower with Root Cause and noticed it was nothing like the old blueprints in their possession.

All the runes were modern, more powerful, more efficient. Even from the grave, the First Ruler of the Flames had managed to turn her greatest masterpiece into something even better.
