Nimrod extended his psychic presence, touching the spiritual light spheres of Alkahas Phall and Nerath Kirin. After confirming that no one was around them, he pulled them into the "Kingdom of Disorder."
The two dropped to their knees amid the black mist, then looked at each other.
Through the black mist, they could vaguely make out one another.
