Meeting The Sky (2)

...

Vohnvolt was bewildered by the words Actuass had just said. For a second, he thought he heard wrong, but as Actuass continued to speak, he realised that the man meant what he had just said.

"I have come to save you mother. After all these years, I've finally managed to reach you. I am here now," Actuass said.

Vohnvolt's sockets nearly exploded with flame as he looked at the necromancer, and then hesitantly looked at the figure above them.

'…What?' he asked himself.

His… mother?

Strangely though, there was no sense of elation or urgency in Actuass' tone as he spoke. In fact, he almost seemed to say these words hesitantly, as though he didn't mean them. 

This confused Vohnvolt all the more, as did the fact that no response came from the gigantic figure above them. Heck, there wasn't even a response from the many individuals bowing before it. They all seemed to not care that there were visitors in their abode.
