Minos looked back one last time before passing the final boundary of the Abyssal Region and the area of the realm where some of his subordinates were waiting.
He hadn't met Lily and Devdar on the way there. From what his senses told him, the two had left the region, just as he had instructed his ally earlier.
'There's no turning back now.' He left the abyssal zone, emerging into a much brighter and quieter area, where a group of six individuals were guarding the surroundings.
"Your Deity Minos..." The men called out to him on noticing his presence, each leaving his post to appear on bended knee in front of him.
Minos waved a hand to allow the group to relax and asked, "How long has it been since Lily and Devdar left?"
"Just over a month, Your Deity." Said a woman native to the realm, one of the many who had already joined the Ancestral Cult, the faction created by Minos at the start of his local journey.
