[ZOE?]
Isaak was surprised to see Zoe's unconscious and bleeding body in front of the apartment's door. The teleportation scroll that he used brought him right in front of it. But he didn't expect to see his wife in that horrible condition.
Moreover, Zoe's body was also surrounded by the same sticky substance that would appear if her life was in danger. If he remembered it correctly, the thing was called 'Goofball' or something close to that.
[It's Kalum Alegre's minion.]
That meant something awful happened that not even Marquis Hendrix Rochester could stop.
[And Runa isn't here!]
"Zoe," Isaak whispered to himself weakly, then he fell to his knees. But his trance only lasted for a few seconds. After getting his wits back, he punched the semi-transparent barrier pretty hard. "Knock this off. I need to treat my wife."
Thankfully, the barrier listened. It melted instantly and didn't leave a trace.
