The Visitor (2)

Some time later, deep in the Silent Forest, a human sized black vortex materialized as a figure stepped out.

Magnus emerged from the void with Vorax still curled around his neck.

He glanced up at the sky. The sun was still out, but it was already shifting toward the evening.

He had lost track of time while exploring Vorax's Void Realm. With the two artificial suns in that space never moving, he couldn't rely on them to measure time.

But he had no regrets.

He had thoroughly explored the entire realm, which was vast. Though he hadn't found anything as valuable as the herb garden, he had still come across several intriguing places.

As soon as he exited the portal, Magnus bade Vorax farewell.

Vorax returned to its massive form and disappeared into the tress, leaving Magnus alone.

Not wanting his men to worry, Magnus wasted no time and headed straight back to his territory.
