Lucian's POV
*****
He and a couple Lunarian soldiers had split up from the others, navigating hallway after hallway. Elian had sent possible coordinates to the Central Runic Core, as extracted from Corvus's memories.
All they had to do was—
SHREIKKKKKK!
The Alpha King paused abruptly, placing a hand on his helmet as a deafening alarm blasted through the entirety of the Obsidian Tower.
"Your Majesty, what's happening?" One of the soldiers asked, head spinning around.
Blue and white runes lit up across the walls, glowing upon them like celestial objects.
Lucian's jaw clenched beneath his full-head helmet. "I don't know." He glanced at both soldiers. "But it's definitely not good. Come on. We need to hurry."
They quickened their pace, one of them already subconsciously gripping a weapon.
The Central Runic Core's room was just around the corner.
"Halt."
