"Cease your hostility towards the human since I authorize her to enter."
One of the guards panicked, saying, "But, Basileus! The corruption—"
The Basileus glared at him, shutting the guard up. "She is not an ordinary human; she is here to help us with the corruption we have been brooding about."
The guard bowed. "My apologies, Basileus, but we cannot afford you to risk your life. We already have cases of corruption spreading within the spirits, especially the low-ranking ones, so we might not know what will happen if the corruption spreads to you too. We don't know where the Phylarcus is, so there's no suitable spirit to guide the others in this situation if your health is at risk."
