Selene, Annette, and Esther huddled close, forming a tight triangle before the pulsing circle.
The air around them filled with thick alien pressure from that world, and the ground trembled with each pulse of the widening breach.
Their faces were pale with the weight of fear, responsibility, and urgency. None of them looked sure or felt ready.
However, they were all that stood between the world and something far worse than death. Eight adventurers from.two different kingdom.
"I don't know if we can close it," Esther said first with sharp and tense voice, cutting through the swirl of noise. Her long fingers twitched with Magic energy already, itching to release something against this unknowable horror.
Selene's gaze sharpened at that. She nodded, one hand already tracing the air around the circle.
Faint sigils followed her fingers, glimmering briefly before the chaotic energy of the breach burned them away.
