"—Let's go see what's behind this gate."
What Lynn and Arezu found behind the gate, upon opening the massive double doors, was a battle about to come to an end—a fight whose result was exactly as Arezu had predicted:
Liz's party, even with Brandon and Sylvie, was losing against the Dungeon Master.
"Mr. Arezu..."
It wasn't the grim sight of Liz, Hannah, and Sylvie lying unconscious on the floor, nor Ellric and Brandon's desperate struggle while injured, that made Lynn call Arezu's name anxiously. It was the sight of the Dungeon Master—a Visage of an unknown girl, yet one that distinctly resembled Arezu.
Her appearance, though much shorter and slimmer than Arezu's, bore the same presence as his. The calm and composed demeanor while fighting, the brownish-gray hair matching her gray eyes, even the tattered, ragged clothes—everything about the Visage of the unknown girl reminded Lynn of the day she had first met Arezu.
