Ange walked back with the Stargazing Ticket in hand and asked Graystick, "The ticket, did you replicate it?"
Graystick, on the brink of exhaustion, lifted her head, took a blurry look, shook her head, then her head lolled to the side, and she fainted.
A Soul Search is a kind of intense psychic invasion. The main reason Graystick had held on until now was that she was too weak, and the Monarch, fearing he might accidentally kill her, had been gentle. Otherwise, she would have lost her soul from the very first moment.
"How so, do you have a use for it?" the Monarch asked.
Ange displayed the ticket and said, "I can replicate the Imprint."
For someone like Ange, who could create Hand Teleportation Arrays from scratch, crafting a Star Map wasn't difficult. The challenge was in getting it right, since Star Maps are constantly changing.
