    When the guards saw Peter entering the Titan castle, they laid down their weapons and bowed to the floor.He watched the place he'd known as home in his past life, the grounds he'd played as a child and practiced his magic as an adult.When he walked into the hall he saw the day he climbed the throne, and the day he was struck down from it by his own cousin.The desire for revenge coursed through his blood and he clenched his fist.Today he'll take back everything from that bastard!"You finally came dear cousin."Lights turned on in the hall illuminating the majestic opulence of the room.Peter's face hardened when he sighted Ethan.He was sitting in a chaise lounge atop an elevated platform within the hall.

At this moment, one of the staff taking care of the Haven rushed into the scene."Bad news! Bad news!" He exclaimed, voice trembling as if something terrible had just happened.No one answered the man who had rushed in, he approached the first elder and spoke."The second and third level of the Haven is experiencing a big problem. All the energy in the air has been sucked up by a strange force!""What?" The first elder couldn't help but feel shocked and frightened at the same time.His eyes subconsciously looked up at the figure standing atop the stairs."How could the energy be sucked away just like that?" "I don't know how, but from our control rooms we saw a person through the cameras, that person seems strange,
