Chapter 41: Stronghold

"There is only you in this journey. There is no force that will help you per se. Even I will leave after this conversation of ours. Having said that, I wish to give you pointers to remember. Firstly, lose your heart. Compassion and kindness will not help you get the results you deserve. Remember, your power is fueled by death. If you cannot do that, then give up now. Secondly, discover your power. Although I enlisted a number of summonses, there will be countless other creatures in the undead realm that you can summon. The more you understand the limits and capabilities of your power, the more powerful you will get. Lastly, do not lose yourself on the journey. That is all I have for you, kid. I hope that you succeed in your quest." with that, the lady merged with the shadows and vanished from the cave.
