After a night of relentless travel, the formidable Illuminarium forces finally reached the western void pillars. The Aaslaam airship skillfully touched down first, establishing a secure perimeter in the area. Aaslaam, Ochoosi, and the resilient Fulani soldiers swiftly erected a defense containment parameter, eliminating any demonic survivors and clearing the path of flaming and smoldering debris. With the area secured, Sehesatia, Palo, Ife, and the enigmatic Sisters of Yathrazil boarded a small transport ship to descend to the surface below. The staggering sight that awaited them was beyond belief - the once-standing void pillar, a monument of 2000 years, now lay in ruins."Maleek did this," inquired Prince Sehasatia, seeking answers. "I dunno, I can only suspect it," replied Palo with a hint of uncertainty. "What could have been going on inside this cursed place?" questioned Ife, grappling with the sheer magnitude of destruction. "I dunno, but there are at least hundre

In the dimly lit inn of Trapos city, Aaslaam, Palo, and the assassins huddled around a rustic table, surrounded by the comforting aroma of local fare and the clinking of tankards. The atmosphere, however, was tainted by the impending shadow of the fallen Divum void pillar. The city's inhabitants revealed the slight joy it brought, yet the trio had more pressing matters at hand. The prince, sage, and assassins were on a quest to find Maleek and unravel the mysteries of the elusive blue flame.As they indulged in the local cuisine and spirits, their minds remained focused on the task at hand. Aaslaam, with a sense of urgency, suggested using this moment to strategize their next move. "This is an excellent opportunity for us to formulate a plan for our next destination. I've gathered information that someone matching Maleek's description departed with the rebel leader Voltus and his wife just a few days ago," he declared, his tone a mix of determination and concern. 

As Maleek, Voltus, and Hao Gio pressed on towards the Rudras Monastery, relieved to see the weather clear and Raifujin's ship vanish from the airspace, their journey carried them through a day's worth of travel until they reached the imposing front gates of the monastery, just as the rain began to descend once more. Stepping forth, Voltus took the lead, his demeanor commanding as he demanded to see Rangi. The gates obediently parted, granting them entry, and Voltus strode ahead, his purpose clear. As they approached, a female monk emerged to greet them, her presence carrying a sense of serenity amidst the martial ambiance of the temple. Her name, Bầu Trời, resonated with the weight of her training and dedication, clad in the humble attire of a tai chi practitioner bearing the sigil of Raphaelius Divim. Standing at a modest height of 5'2" and weighing 135 pounds, she exuded a quiet strength that belie

Aaslaam, Palo, and the assassins, having arrived in Trapos city just a day ago, wasted no time in their pursuit of information regarding Maleek. They had made inquiries among the citizens, seeking any leads on the elusive figure. Securing accommodations at the local inn, they gathered around a table laden with food and drink, immersing themselves in the atmosphere of the bustling tavern. As they indulged in the local fare, their minds were preoccupied with the task at hand, despite the faint joy that permeated the air with the fall of the Divum void pillar. Yet, their focus remained steadfast on their mission to locate Maleek and uncover the secrets of the elusive blue flame. Unbeknownst to them, a Raifujin loyalist lurked in the shadows of the inn, eavesdropping on their conversation with keen interest."This is an excellent moment for us to take the time to come up

As Maleek, Hao Gio, and Rangi trudged through the snow toward the base of the Divum Bridge city, their footfalls were subdued by the thick, muffling blanket of white. Maleek's gaze was drawn upward, his neck craning to take in the sight of the towering structure above. "Wow," he breathed, his exhalation forming ephemeral clouds in the frigid air. "How is it even possible for a city to exist up there, among the clouds?" Maleek's voice was filled with awe as he voiced his wonderment, his eyes wide with admiration for the colossal feat of engineering before him. Hao Gio, walking beside him, chuckled softly, her own breath visible in the biting cold. "It's a marvel of engineering, my friend," she replied, her tone tinged with admiration mirroring Maleek's own. "A testament to human ingenuity and determination." Her words carried a hint of pride, a recognition of the collective effort and vision that had
