Shard's words finally reached the crux, and the Deity hidden behind the pitch-black curtain high above, unknowable, inaudible, invisible, finally spoke.
Of course, although Shard used the term "spoke" to describe it, the actual source of the voice came from all directions:
"Not enough."
If not for the tone being off, he might even doubt whether the God he was encountering now was the same "old acquaintance" from the Sixth Era.
Of course, Shard didn't voice his rather blasphemous thoughts.
Since the God of the Night didn't directly refuse, it meant the matter could be further negotiated. He lightly squeezed the hand of Fiona behind him, signaling to her that it was good news. At the same time, he also felt that Fiona was leaning on him with such force that he had to exert strength to avoid being pushed forward:
"What more must mortals offer to you?"
"Adorn my hall."
The Deity answered.
