Shugo Imperial Tomb!
One crisp autumn morning, sorcerer Mirk stirred awake to a persistent pounding at his door. It was more forceful than a usual knock. He grumpily rolled out of bed and answered it, only to find Osaye standing there, her expression a clear prelude to a hectic day.
- What brings you here at the crack of dawn, Osaye? Mirk was visibly drowsy but trying to keep his composure, just like a well-versed magician should.
- Today, I’m not Osaye. I'm Lara now. Once I turn into a Shugo, you'll call me Lararin.
- Why are you becoming a Shugo? Are you in trouble, running from the Archons? – Mirk was utterly confused.
- We're off to the Tombs. Wild Tayga's gathering a crew, so gear up, grab your orb, and let's get moving. No time for hesitating. Or don't you want new gear?
The witch's assertiveness left Mirk with no choice. He donned his tunic, grabbed the crystal orb and followed the witch.
