They sat there for a while. It was enough for William to recover some of his energy — and for Jhen too — but it wasn't anything that would get them back to 100%.It was something that would help in the next stage of their mission, one that promised to be pretty difficult. The palace would be filled with traps and, according to Jhen, other creatures inside as well.
"Creatures? How can there be monsters in there with all those guards around the palace?" William asked.
"The royal family used to raise all kinds of creatures, and most of them were kept in a specific area of the palace. They released the creatures to make sure no one from the outside could explore the palace. Same reason why they activated the traps," Jhen explained.
That made the situation a bit more complicated, but nothing that would make William or Jhen feel afraid. They were already prepared for that dangerous mission.
