Flying over the chasm, Ekseltus stepped into the main hall.
The layout of the main hall was circular.
The style of the Titan creations was extremely symmetrical, with every detail showcasing an extreme pursuit of order and rational beauty.
If this were not a prison sealing an Old God, it would be perfectly qualified to be Obsidian's dragon lair.
Without hesitation, Ekseltus walked to the left, where the stairs leading to Yogg-Saron's [Prison Chamber] were located.
Soon, the familiar door that players had to experience appeared before his eyes.
The door was extremely inconspicuous, appearing only as a light wall with a slightly metallic pattern, perfectly integrated into the curved structure of the main hall.
If he hadn't seen it countless times in the game, Ekseltus might have missed it.
No keyhole, no handle; this was not a path left for mortals.
He extended a front claw and lightly touched the light wall.
Instantly, dozens of arcane runes emerged, forming Titan script in the air.
It required the authorization of all the Keepers for him to open this door.
Ekseltus's lips curved into a cold arc.
Seek permission? He wasn't here to follow procedures.
Persuade it to open? Simple.
"You cannot refuse me, for I am part of this defense system."
He whispered softly, using his divine authority and knowledge from the [Protection] domain to confuse the door's logic.
Immediately, the door slowly opened.
With a faint click, the light wall rippled inwards, revealing a deep, dark corridor.
A chill swept out, mixed with fragmented whispers that made one's soul tremble.
Ekseltus remained unmoved; he stepped into the corridor without hesitation.
"I have a premonition that things will not be so simple."
Ekseltus's feeling was quickly confirmed.
The stairs leading to the prison descended straight down, feeling as if they went directly to Ulduar's foundations.
With every distance he advanced, the cold whispers in the air became clearer.
It wasn't a sound, but a vague murmur clinging to the edge of one's thoughts, like someone repeatedly whispering in your dream.
This was not Yogg-Saron "speaking," but his very "existence" was a form of pollution.
At the end of the corridor was a spacious hall, about a hundred feet square, but its center was empty, with only the door directly opposite the passage being particularly striking.
No, it couldn't be called a door.
It was a "face" of a certain barrier, square, over thirty meters high, its surface rippling slightly like lake water.
The runic array maintaining the barrier's stability was emitting a low hum, clearly having operated for an extremely long time.
This was the seal.
The true seal.
Ekseltus slowly stepped forward, golden light swirling in his dragon eyes, carefully examining this energy barrier that separated inside from out.
Similarly, there was no keyhole, no handle, and no way to open it.
However, this door was clearly very different from the previous one.
The latter screened entrants, while the sole purpose of this barrier was to prevent what was inside from coming out!
There was no opening mechanism, because it was designed to be—entry only, or rather, eternally sealed!
He was silent for a moment, then raised a claw and gently pressed it against the surface.
At that instant, the entire stone hall trembled.
Some invisible resonance spread from the seal, like the world itself emitting a low warning.
[Authorization failed...]
[Entity information retrieving...]
[Error! Error! Error!]
[No matching database entries...]
[Detecting ultra-high intensity external interference—Highest level rejection!]
"Oh?" He first used divine power to disrupt the Keepers' perception of the area, then retracted his front claw, and immediately spread his dragon wings.
The next moment, a five-colored breath erupted with a roar, striking the very center of the seal.
