Brief Return [2]

After spending what felt like hours in the void, the group was finally able to exit the portal. Damien's mana capacity wasn't completely dry, but this was only because he already had some connection to Apeiron.

He didn't know when this connection began to strengthen, but it was second only to earth, much stronger than those he had with the random celestial bodies floating through the void.

Claire looked around with awe as she witnessed the sight of a new world. They had teleported directly into Damien's house within Aurora, so she was able to get a clear view of the city and the area beyond it.

The bustling atmosphere that filled the city, and its sheer size were enough to amaze her, yet this was only the tip of the iceberg. When Claire looked around, she was able to see the majestic castle that occupied the center of the city, being larger than some towns on earth.
