Chapter 87 - Distrust  

"What?" Arthur in shock. "A gate?"

"Wait. A gate? Aldriana, are you sure?" Liam asks, not in doubt, but in dread. This is the worst thing that can happen to them. A gate means a dungeon. And if Julian is in there, it means the gate is locked. No one can enter. They cannot save Julian.

"No. You're lying." Arthur denies it.

"Liam, Arthur. I get it. I understand why neither of you want to believe it. But this is not the time to doubt. Julian needs us. We need to get to that gate. We don't have time for this shit!" Aldriana starts to lose her patience.

"I don't care if you don't believe me. But I'm going there. You can stay here and wait for sunrise. I'm not."
