Zafira and Kelvin materialized back at the abandoned factory.
Several hours had passed since their departure for the Purgatory and morning had arrived. Evident by a rising sun peeking through cracks in boarded-up windows.
"Well.” Kelvin sighed
“Well, that certainly was fun, wasn’t it?” Zafira said, smiling at Kelvin.
“You could say that,” Kelvin chuckled. "So, what happens now?” He asked.
“Now we rest. Tonight, I’ll use the items we gathered to perform the ritual.” Zafira replied
“Rest? How could I possibly rest now?” Kelvin exclaimed
“Let me rephrase it, I need to rest. Such a ritual is very taxing, even for me. Do you understand?" she explained
Zafira opened two portals with her hands, one leading to her lair and the other to Kelvin's apartment.
“I will come for you when I’m ready.” she said as she walked towards the portal leading to her lair.
Kelvin watched as Zafira disappeared into the magical portals, he couldn't possibly force her.
