Inside the glass dome, Malakai and Renlo made their way to a corner and stood. Other youths began arriving, and soon enough, the space filled with quiet chatter as they discussed among themselves.
Malakai's gaze shifted to the Iron Saint, who now stood at one end of the dome alongside several other Blooms and Blood Champions.
'Looks like they're taking this seriously.'
They were about to leave the city. And aboard this beast were the future geniuses of the Sanguine clan, youths who would one day lead.
The dangers that could come were too many to count. But with the presence of Blooms and Blood Champions, many of the participants felt a sense of relief.
With everyone on board, the massive doors of the dome slammed shut.
Then, the beast began to rise.
Malakai felt the shift in the air. Spirals of intense wind whipped around the Skeldrith. The air grew lighter, and in the next second, the beast shot forward, tearing through the skies at blinding speed.
