Emery saw this encounter as a golden opportunity to extract guidance from the celestial, hoping to leverage his current achievements in the ongoing expedition to uncover clues or methodologies that would propel him into this highly coveted realm.

The grand magus of death stood as a chilling testament to the duality within Emery, a manifestation of darkness that loomed over the land.

Yet, the visions of the cosmic synergy beckoned him, offering a power beyond imagination. To tread the path of combining darkness and light, he first needed to address the broken state of his primal core. Here lay the challenge — the celestial beings, while formidable in their wisdom, had limitations when it came to the realm of darkness elements.
