CH231 The Eagle Named Senu
***
Alex's head snapped toward the sound, only for his heart to sink when he realised it came from the direction of the Bonsai Tree.
Thump~
His chest tightened, panic rushing through him.
For a brief, dreadful moment, he thought something had gone wrong with the Voidheart Core.
But his fear proved unfounded. He had simply been too paranoid.
What had cracked was not the Voidheart Core, but the Nightmare Eagle's Egg.
Or at least—Alex believed it was the Nightmare Eagle's Egg.
He had reason to doubt. The egg now in front of the Bonsai Tree was far larger than the one he last remembered seeing a few weeks ago, when he had last stepped into the Sanctuary.
This one now stood almost a full metre tall.
If not for the familiar runic symbols carved into its shell, Alex might have thought some other egg had inexplicably found its way into the Sanctuary—a possibility that would have been truly alarming.
