'An Awakened!'
The thought stunned them all as their bodies froze from fear. Since they had entered the city, every single person they'd encountered was a Dormant. The fact that there was an Awakened here in this city was even more unnerving.
However, after a few moments the pressure retreated— allowing them to breathe. Now a bit calmer, the four stood up and looked inside the throne room where the Star Lord, donned in his white armor was seated majestically.
'No matter what, I must face him.'
Hazel took in a deep breath and stepped into the room, the others tailing behind her.
"Greetings, sir... Star Lord."
She said, her tone laced with its usual aloofness.
The Star Lord's green eyes seemed to turn to her for a brief moment before he nodded.
"Hmm. I've heard of your group for a while now, and I can say I'm impressed. Every generation is simply better than the previous ones."
Hazel's eyes narrowed slightly but she nodded softly and spoke.
