Before the Throne of the Phoenix
"Are you ready?"
Videl slowly lifted her gaze.
Her sapphire-blue eyes met Mora's calm black ones.
For a brief moment neither of them spoke. The corridor behind them had fallen completely silent, as if even the palace itself was holding its breath.
Then—
She nodded.
"Yes."
Mora returned the nod.
Without another word, he stepped forward and placed both hands against the enormous doors before them.
The ancient wood groaned softly under the pressure.
Slowly—
The massive doors began to open.
A deep, echoing sound rolled through the palace hall as the doors to the throne room of Skyfall Kingdom slowly swung wide.
Mora stepped forward first.
Videl followed a single step behind him.
The moment she entered the throne room—
Her senses sharpened.
The room was enormous.
