The group was looking at the sky. The barrier started to vanish, yet they knew... it was still there.
"What's happening?" Amon muttered.
His eyes fell on the sight before him now.
Down in the huge pit, the most striking feature was the bizarre tree located in the center.
At the base of the tree was drawn a huge, complex magic circle. Looking like some ritual magic.
Between the circle lay seven dead bodies of children, limp. A dark violet crystal was embedded in the middle of the circle. It pulsed with energy and emitted a dangerous hue.
Blood spilled on the ground.
And surrounding the tree and the magic circle was a horde of Barlguras.
Not a small one, but big.
More than fifty Barlguras were growling there. Bloodthirsty eyes.
Some of them were on the tall trees while some were on the ground.
Protecting the magic circle.
Selena also turned her face to the sight. Her red eyes narrowed sharply.
"Seems like some kind of ritual. Don't know what it is about."
