It had been nearly a year since Grain was in the Abyss.
Remus had informed him that he could find The Alchemist at the deepest part.
It was located at one end of the long jagged cavern, a sheer drop down a black hole. The way down was completely smooth on three sides, with the side connected to the rest of the cavern covered in giant spikes. Each spike was made of an unbreakable glass-like material.
Climbing them was impossible, only spelling death. The rest of the Abyss could be travelled on foot or climbing but one would need the agility to fly or levitate to traverse this area safely.
Grain had never searched this area previously, only because he wouldn't risk what was down there.
He was currently thankful for that decision, only because of how formidable The Alchemist sounded.
After flying down the hole for several minutes, Grain could feel the shift in the pressure around him.
Almost like he was flying into a vacuum.
