'The Dominion?'
Simon searched his memories, but the name meant nothing to him.
"What is The Dominion?"
Zarven hummed quietly, his thumb brushing the square black ring on his hand.
"How long have you been with the Abyss, Blackmoon?"
"A few days."
His thumb stopped moving.
For a moment, the First Merchant simply looked at him. Then he shook his head.
"Only a few days… No wonder you haven't heard of them."
He adjusted his position in his chair.
"Have you heard of The Four Orders?"
Simon frowned.
"No. What are they?"
"The name given to four hidden organizations. The Abyss, The Dominion, the Eternal Court, and the Blood Covenant."
Simon listened closely.
Even in his past life, he had never heard of The Four Orders.
"All four are led by Daemons," Zarven continued. "They remain hidden, and none has the population or territory of the great kingdoms. But they are the true powers of the Demon Realm."
"You're saying they're stronger than the six great kingdoms?"
"Yes."
