The outer courtyard was massive, but Neo and the other two found no path that could lead to Celestial Treasures or inheritances.
It was then that a voice echoed:
"Welcome, Trial Takers."
All three of them turned to look, finding a massive mirror with a golden frame and a talking mouth at the top.
"Oh, a talking mirror... This is quite interesting," Noir muttered.
The mirror continued,
"I am the Mirror of Truth. Answer ten questions truthfully, and you will earn the pass to the Inner Court where you will meet the exalted beings to let them choose you as their inheritor."
Neo frowned, not liking the tone at all. After all, he had so many secrets to keep.
"Is it ten questions for all of us, or ten for each?" Neo asked the mirror.
"Ten for each," the mirror replied, smiling creepily.
"Then we are leaving," Neo said, turning to leave, or perhaps to bluff the mirror.
However, the mirror was completely unfazed, acting as if it did not care at all.
