The next day, Igaris and Shirley returned to the Martial Sanctuary.
On the other hand, Evernight remained behind to oversee and defend the Overlord's territory during his absence. She was not alone, however. Alongside her stood a formidable force of 6000 Acquisition troops and 5000 newly subdued World Divers, now bound in loyalty to Igaris.
Shirley, standing beside Igaris as they before a Dimensional gate, found herself once again stunned.
"So You're saying that you can move between Dungeon Worlds freely now?" she asked, blinking charmingly.
Igaris gave her a sideways glance and a small smirk. "More or less. It's a new ability… and it's made things easier."
Shirley didn't respond immediately. Her heart was already accustomed to racing whenever she was around him, but now it seemed she needed to build an entirely new threshold for shock.
