Sylas gasped for breath, his body being forcefully ejected out.
He practically flew out, coughing up a mouthful of blood. As he did so, he and Nosphaleen were forcefully separated, and suddenly the heat of the world's core almost burnt him to ash in a single instant of time.
It was Nosphaleen that reacted quickly, rushing to him and hugging him tightly.
The world seemed to recognize Sylas as someone Nosphaleen wanted to protect, and it finally let down a bit of its guard. Then, it thought clearly enough to feel a closeness with Sylas, which, while not as strong as its closeness to Nosphaleen, was strong nonetheless.
'Did it… work?'
Sylas coughed again as Nosphaleen pulled him away from the core of the world, his mind still spinning.
He knew that something had been done, but he wasn't sure if this was exactly what he wanted just yet.
