Marcus stepped forward and attempted to pass through the swirling, cloud-like exit. He expected the familiar sensation of transition, the brief distortion of space that accompanied teleportation.
But nothing happened. He remained exactly where he was. A system notification appeared in front of him.
[The exit of the Mist Veil Palace is damaged and cannot be used.]
'Damaged?' Marcus frowned. 'Great. So how exactly am I supposed to get out? Even if I complete the quest and obtain the Dragon's Crest and the Dragon-Horse Lyre, what then? Am I just supposed to live here now?'
Refusing to accept it at face value, he charged at the white energy shield that encased the palace. The moment he made contact, it felt like slamming into a solid steel wall. The barrier did not so much as ripple. Ever since the Wyvern Saint Knight Lyanna sealed the palace, this exit had been the only way in or out.
