After returning to the obsidian palace, Rhea's faction was brimming with joy and celebration. The victory was momentous for them, and Rhea made sure to express her gratitude to Sargan repeatedly.
"Your contributions to this victory were invaluable," she said. "I am forever grateful to you. Tell me, what can I do to repay you?"
Rhea's words were filled with genuine appreciation and respect for Sargan. She was eager to hear what he had to say, recognizing that his efforts had been instrumental in their success.
