Meaningful Rumours

So many eggs!

Light spots could be seen over their off-white shells of the eggs as they lay stuck between the many gems that glowed luminously in clumps of tens.

On top of the many eggs and gems that were sprinkled all over the floor, Skullius and the others also saw four large octopi that stuck themselves to the wall in different directions, their bulbous heads wobbling as they seemed agitated by the entry of the invaders.

Their natural colour was grey with blisters growing over them, but as they laid smothered to the walls with their eight tentacles, their shade suddenly turned to a nasty blue with the mana that was filling up the space shivering and speeding towards the tops of their noggins!

There was no need for words!

All three Null Lifeforms instantly discerned the danger and the first to act... was the Hound.
