Ashema remained outside the massive Territory's border, trying to judge what was happening inside. Since his declaration against Pherdanta, an agreement really, that the lesser between them would perish and that that would be that, she had since sealed the barrier, allowing no outsider to see what was happening inside.
Fair enough, was Ashema's reasoning.
The only thing as interesting as the fact that he and Pherdanta were two individuals who understand their places on the totem pole – as ultimate subordinates entrusted with the will of their masters – was the fact that the Divine Cavern that had melded into Cogent Stark Order had yet to destroy it from the inside.
How was that even possible?
Seven minutes had already passed. How could they not have destroyed it by now?
