Descending to the lower depths of the Venganza, Maleek's footsteps echoed against the worn stone, each step a reminder of the desolation that surrounded him. As he traversed the seemingly endless expanse, his gaze was drawn to a colossal bridge stretching across the abyss, a testament to forgotten times. The bridge, spanning at least two miles in length, bore the weight of neglect, with three abandoned checkpoint towers standing as silent sentinels along its path.
Reaching the end of the bridge, Maleek's eyes widened in awe at the sight of a towering citadel, its imposing presence casting a shadow over the deserted landscape. The city emanated an ethereal glow, its colors shifting and merging in a mesmerizing display. Unable to contain his curiosity, Maleek murmured under his breath, his voice barely audible amidst the silence. To his surprise, Venganza

The Dark Ichalocha Of Terres Nei CHAPTER 69: CASTING SAILS
Eight months had passed since Maleek's arrival in Terres Nei, with the last four spent navigating the intricate landscapes of the Raphaelium Region. Now present day, it has been a week since the Raphaelium Pillar has been freed from Nibirian control. Maleek took a much-needed respite to recover from the overwhelming fatigue that accompanied the acquisition of two elemental magics in a concise span.

Rescued by Sehesatia, Palo orchestrated the retrieval of Aaslaam and Maleek, bringing them back to the capital of Illuminairium.
