Lidien couldn't help but sigh when he remembered the corpses of the two Skinless Leopards he had left at the Bone Orchard, and also the remains of the Relic guardian in the Ancient Hall where everything had started.
'They could have been great test subjects for my experiment, instead of watching these corpses rot and turn to skeletons, for they're all the same.'
Glancing one last time at the corpses, the paradise of flies, Lidien walked out of the cabin, going outside the Rift.
It was already late in the afternoon when Lidien went out of the Rift and was greeted by his clansmen bowing towards him.
'When fear turns to reverence, everyone respects you.'
He walked towards the Knowledge Spire, hoping that he could find a book which could help him decipher the ancient text to be able to read the writings in the Book bound by human skin.
Lidien watched the people passing by him; even children much younger than him bowed and shivered when they met him.
