Astrid's Resolve

A faint smile crossed Pyris's lips, though it quickly faded as the aches in his body flared again. Rising from his seat, he winced, his injuries protesting every movement. His wounds of his recent battles with the guardian were reopening and showed no signs of healing.

"Guess I'll be going to the office with these on my face," he muttered, shaking his head. But that was the least of his worries.

With a thought, he pulled out a list—the treasures he needed to recover Lia's soul. The items glimmered faintly on the screen.

[Primordial Etherstone, Aetherium Threads, Obsidian Soulglass, Void Essence Crystal, Luststone Shard, Celestial Bloodmetal, Blood of a God.]

Two of these treasures were already in his possession: the Void Essence Crystal and now the Blood of a God.

"I'll need Mira to search and turn the labyrinth upside down for the others while I look for them here," Pyris mused aloud.
