The Brotherhood of Shadows sounds too dark, I declare that from now on, this place will be called the "Holy Light Brotherhood."
Diakum had been delivered by a strange ghost ship to a strange starport. From what he had learned along the way, this "floating island," shrouded in peculiar fog that even made it difficult for divine senses to spread, lay within the mysterious "Void Quadrant."
This was the first time Vigilant had heard this impressive-sounding but incomprehensible term.
According to that pirate captain, who practically radiated sleaziness and cunning from every inch of his body, the so-called "Void Quadrant" was a strange substance that served as a "buffer" between different universes beneath the entire multidimensional system. It was basically equivalent to the "aether" that filled Azeroth's galaxy.
The Void Quadrant was boundless and difficult to cross, while the countless universes beneath the multidimensional system were contained within it like isolated islands. Of course, it was surely an incredibly complex multidimensional structure.
At least, Lord of Dawn's mystical wisdom was nowhere near enough to understand how this system worked. Dick suspected that the shitty pirate probably did not understand it either, and was deliberately spouting profound nonsense to brush him off.
Still, the shitty pirate had indeed given him quite a bit of useful information.
For example, the floating island located deep within the Void Quadrant was the main base of operations for the Brotherhood of Shadows. Although its members each had their own "directly governed universe" as territory, they usually carried out the organization's assignments quietly within their respective domains.
But whenever they needed to accomplish something no individual could handle alone, or hold discussions on matters of great importance, they gathered here.
This island blanketed in gray fog was the fleet homeport of the pirate captain Black Shaw.
