Oh, what an unexpected gain!
Ronan had not expected the effect of putting up the "Ronan Ruler" to show itself so quickly. Yin Le's mental defenses had nearly collapsed like a breached dam. Perhaps she still had a chance to repair them, but at that very moment, in the Extreme Domain, deeper even than the Abyss Zone, the Demon Rune silently shook loose two strands of "spider silk" to fill in the network's missing nodes.
