Solomon navigated the winding stone corridors of the Azure Dragon Sect until he found the communal bathhouse. Sure, his room had a shower, but he wanted to relax in the hot spring.
He stepped inside the humid room and stripped off his dirty clothes.
The floating owl followed him closely. He tapped his floating blue interface twice.
He activated the first Null Orb, immediately followed by the second. The dark swirling spheres materialized and instantly absorbed the light from the mechanical bird's crystal eye. The projection cut to black.
He secured exactly ten minutes of unrecorded privacy.
He submerged himself in the hot spring. The soothing heat seeped into his bruised muscles. He rested Eden's Penance against the tiled wall nearby, keeping the weapon within arm's reach. He closed his eyes and sank deeper into the pool.
SPLASH~!
A splashing noise echoed from the entrance.
