Alden froze.
Fear flashed in his good eye, and it took everything he had not to tremble under Morrigan's Transcendent aura. His valiant - if not foolish - effort only lasted a brief moment, before her brutal and crushing presence overwhelmed him.
It was just that tyrannical and domineering.
…Just that inexorable.
It was complete and utter domination.
She wished to suppress the space around her, and the world could do nothing but acquiesce to her will. That was how powerful the Keeper of the End was. She did not look like it because of her illness, but beneath that frail figure, lay a frightening individual, who had transcended above all others.
A person like that could never be weak.
Alden cursed himself for unconsciously being swayed by Morrigan's feeble state.
