The palace had many guards, but Diana used her frost to freeze them before they could hinder them. She turned to Alaric, who was still monitoring the situation through his hacking abilities, and asked, "How far are we from the location of the signal?"

"There is no doubt that it's within the palace. If we run in a straight line, it would take us minutes. However," paused the pirate as he stared ahead, "we might run into more than just one obstacle."

Diana saw that a barrier had appeared in front of them, blocking their progress in the palace. Her flames burst to clash against the barrier, but it stood resilient. She sighed and sent a small sphere of red and blue toward the barrier before she pulled Alaric aside and entered a room for cover.
