After a ten-minute walk, the boy was finally out of danger, at the city's borders. As the sun was about to set, the metal dome closed over the entire city.
With a loud crash, two enormous layers of metal rose on either side of the city. You could hear every lock and clasp of the layers of metal rising ever higher into the sky.
Danaël paid no attention, nor did the rest of Goliath's inhabitants. The dome was a safety measure against monsters wandering about at sunset.
For a moment, the city was plunged into total darkness, and then the light crystals throughout Goliath lit up.
"Dod! Here I am!"
Dod Allentown stood a few yards from Danaël, leaning against a wall under the crystal light. The violet glow reflected off his matte skin, revealing a slight discoloration on the right side of his face from his right eye to the bottom of his ear in the form of a cloud.
His gaze was so cold, and his eyes were an intense black. Dod turned his gaze towards Danaël, dressed in the same black cape (and boots) as his friend.
Below, you can see a white shirt with buttons, well tucked into his black and purple cargo pants. He then removed his hood, revealing long black curls falling to his eyebrows. Dod approached his friend before saying :
"What took you so long?"
" I'd like to see you there", replied an annoyed Danaël. "It's always complicated during the solstice."
