A white haired man in a sleek white suit sat silently in the soothing darkness of an underground chamber filled with large glass tubes, Nexus tubes to be exact
Damien calmly regarded the man floating in the glass tube before him.
The man's clothes were damaged, but fortunately, most of his wounds were fully healed.
" Any time now.. ."
Conrad's eyes abruptly flew open, igniting in a burst of golden light.
A muffled shout escaped his lips, Nexus fluid boiling around him.
A wave of umbralis rippled through the chamber, but the Nexus tube held.
Damien clasped his arms behind his back, fixing him with a calm gaze.
" Conrad, snap out of it, you're home."
The golden flow in his eyes faded, and the dark figure sank through the Nexus fluid, landing on the bottom of the glass tube.
The fluid receded around him, draining into vents within the Nexus tube's interior.
Soon, the glass tube itself followed, sinking into the ground with a loud reverberating sound.
