The Awakening.

Monarch High Heaven said to her, "In that case, you should be very happy. It is finally going to happen. I'm guessing you are here to make sure I complete the awakening or to take advantage of the situation while I complete the awakening. Which is it?"

She gave him a nod. "You are right to guess. But whatever my aim is, it doesn't matter to you. You are about to die anyway."

The realm lord shook his head and said, "I can't do anything to you, but I hope the first one will not be so useless."

She laughed. "How interesting. The hopes of a dying man. I will use this against the first one when he wakes up."

The three of them returned to silence as they waited. The change they were waiting for happened soon. Mother High Heaven finished with her work, so the link between the realm lord and the realm became permanent and strengthened.
