Gravis went to the Mountain of Pride and stood before the Empress. "I'm ready to go," he said.
The Empress nodded. Then, she turned to the Grand Elder, who stood right beside her. "I'll leave everything up to you," she said.
The Grand Elder sighed. "I knew that this time would come, but I'm still not looking forward to it. This will be a pain."

The Grand Elder sighed again. "I know, and I will keep my word. You've helped me for centuries. I guess now it's my time to help you."
Gravis thought that the Grand Elder was making a big deal out of nothing. He only had to watch over the Empire for a little more than 50 years.
