I sensed a few jade and ruby-categories sprinting towards the city gate.

They stopped in front of us.

The leader, a tall jade-category wearing a crown at least a billion years old, went to the front.

"Wopoimcl, you have brought these?"

"Yes. I have been assigned to work with this one, Arjun, by my boss, and he brought this one, Aryav," Wopoimcl said, gesturing at me. I didn't know what to do, addressed by such direct power when the king looked at me. Then I realized, he was probably testing me with a skill to see if I was any good. I rejected it easily, it only being the strength of a diamond-category.

"Well, we need to talk in private. You are such an important figure amongst the cosmic pathways that we can't discuss here, in public," The king said.

We started walking down the cobbled street to the palace.
