*Watches Sylas walk away then looks to Aurora*
"We prepare for the storm."
"We arrived unshielded. The Necromancers know we are here and they will follow. The Essence magi will prepare their dagger. The powers that bind sanctuary will weaken and fail, and the necromancers will come, seeking to follow us through our gate. They know their world is dying and they know we come from a world yet filled with life."
*Llyshon takes a deep breath and looks to the caretaker.* "Prepare your people. Our time for rest is over. Tonight we will retrieve the last piece we need for the gate. Tonight we will take the portal back to Phanterra. Tonight will see the death of Sanctuary, and the birth of hope for our own."
*He smiles sadly at the Caretaker, places his hand on the pommel of his weapon and bows his head towards him in a sign of respect*, "I am an avatar of fire. I am a student of lore. I know well that all things must end, and that death must come, even to the deathless. I am honored that I will be here to see, and to take part in your world's end."
*Llyshon raises his head and his eyes meet those of the Caretaker.* "Because of the strength that you have shown in these last moments of your world, I give you my pledge as a Knight-Squire of Silverthorne that "Sanctuary" shall be a name revered in the histories and texts of our own. While our Kingdom lasts, your world will live on in our memories."
