"Have you ever heard the name ‘Lady Ausra’ before?&8221;
Dorian stared at Mira, his eyes widening just slightly
‘Ausra? Do you know her?’ He internally asked the construct in his Soul Spell Matrix a question
He received no response, not unexpectedly
"Yes, I’ve heard of her She was one of the Five Great Heroes of the Yale De the Wise Jade Dragon Despite her almost ethereal, beautiful appearance, the wo

Dorian shook his head
"Well, let estured with her hand at hiifted and talented woreatest researcher, the greatest on Tribe&8221; Mira’s voice was full of passion as she spoke of Ausra,
"She had a grand dreaoal that was unan to talk,
"She wanted to create a list of every creature in existence Their growth limitations, their powers, their Abilities, their descriptions To cole living being&8221;
"Just the idea itself was so never before attempted Her ambition leapt above every competitor, every other researcher She had always focused on the biggest picture, the world itself&8221;
"How can we co if we do not first understand who and what they are?&8221;
Mira finished talking for a , however, the passion and adoration she held for Lady Ausra clear
‘A list of every creature in existence? Defining their Abilities, their powers?’ Dorian’s eyes widened
That sounded like exactly what his Soul Spell Matrix had
"This was her life’s work Lady Ausra was unique aon Tribe She was born with a special Ability that allowed her to draw information from Fate itself, in a manner unlike that of norside her fastidious research over hundreds of years, to compile her list&8221; Mira nodded her head as she continued,

"And right now… I can sense traces of randmother within you&8221;
Her eyes were calm as she looked at Dorian,
"What relation do you have with randmother? Who are you?&8221;
Helena rushed out of the tent, her heart racing Blood pounded in her ears as she went on full alert, scanning her surroundings
A ork of energy was visible, surrounding the entire plateau
"They triggered the shield outline&8221; Trajan’s voice carried a hint of calht behind him The two Anomalies stood at the center of the ca his hand on the hilt of his sword, while the chef Xaphan was looking at the sky curiously
"Where are they?&8221; Helena barked out a command as her Vampire subordinates appeared They were all at the Grandmaster Class, specialized Blood Trackers or Wizards that could h-level coed to find Arial
"They should be approaching fro down one of the winding stone paths that approached their outcropping
Helena turned, holding her hands at the ready She tapped on her Spatial Ring lightly, reifted to her by General Carus
‘…I can only use it if I absolutely need to’ She nodded to herself
As everyone in the group turned to look at one of the winding stone paths, in the distance, two figures appeared
Helena’s eyes narrowed as she saw them
‘They aren’t the Shades…’
One was a man and the other was a woman The man had an odd appearance, with half of his body covered in soht crystal armor, while the wo dress
‘They’re strong though Pseudo-King’ The two figures were not holding back at all Even fro forth with a powerful Aura
WHOOSH
An Aura of Helena’s own burst out, rocketing into the air with power as she displayed her Law of Might for all to see Her Aura was a do Class
"Halt! Why are you here? What do you want?&8221; Trajan yelled aloud as he released an Aura of his own, his Law of Rain bursting forth in the hot air The deadly heat of Magth, the Power of Laas not soures, man and woy that surrounded their ca a few cantrips by the Grandmaster Class Wizards under Helena It had no real offensive or defensive power, but was great at enes, Aurelius Family Reavers&8221; The man that was half covered in crystal armor spoke first As Helena looked at hi crystals that covered the right side of his body weren’t armor
They were actually a physical part of hi you a elcome from the Borrel Autarchy&8221; His voice boo the air with power He took several steps forward, stopping just outside of the web of energy
Helena studied the man
‘He must be from one of the 108 Departments That crystal setup… The Earth Department? The Metal Departic Departantuan in size and scale, and its e Each Departe nu Class Wizards Six or seven Departh to take on an entire Fahlords and their ancient inheritances
"I am the leader of the forces here&8221; Helena stepped forward, her tight dress stretching with her as she walked severalon the other side of the energy web
"What do you want, Borrelian? The Neutrality Pact we signed is still in effect&8221;
Many years ago, the Borrel Autarchy had clashed with the Three Va when all three Highlords personally engaged the Wizard King in a duel
The duel ended in a draw, thanks to both the power each Highlord had, as well as the rare inheritances that had been passed on for generations of Vahlord
The Capitoline Wolf Bracelet that General Carus had gifted her to use in an eency was a part of the ancient Inheritance the Aurelius Family controlled
