As your group arrives on flying brooms, you get to see the Witch's palace in its full glory. Its a
Mari motions you all to remain outside of a certain perimeter. She will not allow you to get any closer, but you would be allowed to roam around close and watch the... "negotiations" that are about to unfold.
"..."
You see the Witch on top of the highest point of her domain, the roof of a tower connected to her home.
The sun has slowly begun to set. Twilight is approaching.
"Finally come out of your slumber, eh? Look at you, old man. Reduced to nothing. Nothing but an empty husk of curses and ancient magic that even I would have trouble comparing to... Normally. Imagine that. A mistress of magic- and would still normally be beaten by the likes of you...
...
{Spoiler}
...Codeskull. The God of Old. Lord of Time itself and the tyrannical ruler of Ancient Isles."
...Codeskull. The God of Old. Lord of Time itself and the tyrannical ruler of Ancient Isles."
You all see a hulking giant approaching from around south-east. Slow movement, ragged and hazy breathing... And absolutely overwhelming magic. Many townpeople of Spirit Sanctum have already fled in panic, leaving behind a wasteland that is slowly getting ravaged by the irregular flow of time, turning everything cracked, twisted and ancient.
The Witch focuses her full attention at the behemoth before her. You see Ren flying close by her side and another maiden in pure white on a winged horse joins him.
"By all means... Tell me what bring thee here, o ancient lord of time... Provided you could even speak normally at all? As a fellow ruling goddess, you are invading my very own lands. As such, I shall formally warn thee... You and I are not bound by any typical rules of this game, simply because you refused to participate."
"And after you tell me that... Get. Lost. You are within the very heart of my damn domain. You don't think I would be prepared at all?"
The hulking god finally gets close, standing right within the Witch's domain, just a few meters away from the mansion itself. He stares everyone down. The landscape, Spirit Sanctum, The mansion, The Witch... And finally. All of you.
