Not until he stepped outside the bounds of the Dark Night Garden did Shiayar realize that Enola's intuition, which had been on edge like a panicked cat, was slowly calming down.

"She's powerful."
After walking side by side for a while, the blonde girl next to Shiayar spoke up in a cool voice.
"Indeed, she's powerful. Just now, it was merely her avatar woven from shadows, but it already felt no less intimidating than a 6-Ring."
"If I'm not mistaken, she must be the master of the Dark Shadow Council, 'Queen of the Night' Augutina."
"It is said that she holds part of the authority over night and secrets. Whether that's true or not is unclear."
Shiayar nodded.
Aside from his teacher, this was his first time facing a Legendary figure so closely.
