Once back in the relics room the young women could perceive that several portals had opened, growing as time progressed.

"We must stop this." Elsa said.

"I have an idea." Honeymaren said, levitating to the back of the room, where right in the center there was a big door, apparently made of dark stone. "I'm going to let go of your back so hold on to me." The young sorcerer said to her girlfriend, not wanting to let her on the floor with the unstableness of the place. The young Queen nodded and held her partner's shoulder better, getting closer to her; then the young sorcerer gave a magical touch to the stone door, opening it, both girls advanced levitating and once inside the door closed behind them.

The room was dark, stone-colored and devoid of any detail or decoration, except for two things, in the background, the symbol of Vishanti that also formed the huge window of the shrine was carved into the stone and in the center of the room, a platform of the same material housed a small base on which rested one of the most powerful relics that Honeymaren had read about.

"The Eye of Agamotto." Honeymaren said, finally letting Elsa's feet touch the floor.

"The magic that this relic irradiates is formidable, can you use it safely?" Elsa asked, walking next to Honeymaren as she approached the center of the room when suddenly the cloak came off from the young Northuldra, floating on its own in place, as if refusing to advance further.

"Are you... you're alive, aren't you?" Elsa asked the cloak, which only made one move that could be interpreted as affirmative.

"Why do you stop? do you think it's a bad idea?" Honeymaren asked, and in the face of the movement of the lively relic she understood that it was not the case.

The young women, coming out of the adrenaline that getting back from that strange place caused them, stopped a little to appreciate the cloak that now floated among them.

The neck of the cloak was high and straight, had a large design embroidered on the back and upper back and at the end at the front had two gold metal emblems with straight angles and curved outer edge, one on each side of the neck and both with an elongated hexagon design – mostly gold, with some red exceptions near the outer edge-. The entire edge of the cloak had an intricate embroidery that varied from scattered symbols to lines that demarcated everything and oscillated between the symbols. The left shoulder of the layer was especially delineated with an edge equal to that of the end of the layer and it is from this shoulder that some lines split, embroidered in diagonal directions along the layer, connecting sometimes to form a few frames of a darker red color to the rest of the fabric and which in turn would be embroidered with a tiny engraving on its entire surface; finally by the inside of the layer a slight pattern of grids located geometrically so perfectly covered the entire extension of the fabric could be seen. There was no doubt that that relic was a masterpiece of great power on its own, being easily distinguished that in each embroidery, symbol or detail it had a great mystical power infused to it.

"You're clearly powerful and you seem to know what's going on, so tell me, what are you trying to say?" The young Northuldra asked.

The cloak wrapped around Honeymaren, made her turn around to stand in front of the Eye of Agamotto and let go, giving her a slight push, all in a fast sequence of movements. Elsa took a few steps towards the young sorcerer but the cloak spread itself to prevent her from approaching.

"What's the matter with you?" Elsa asked struggling to get through.

"Should I do this alone?... that's what you mean, isn't it?

With a quick movement of the cloak they both understood that it was.

"Don't worry Snowflake, I'll be fine, just give me a few minutes and everything will be settled." Honeymaren said, turning to Elsa, and then she took the remaining steps towards the platform.

The powerful artifact looked as impressive as Honeymaren had seen it in the diagrams embodied in the books, the golden curved shape of the Eye clearly made of some high capacity mystical metal showed black symbols engraved along much of its surface and its central shape consisted of the symbol of Vishanti already known to her, through which a background of similar characteristics and a second curved shape as the Eye could be seen, golden and with black symbols engraved too, and where the spherical form that undoubtedly housed the enormous power of the ancient relic was settled. Finally, two golden locks came out over it, holding the leather strap that was impregnated and reinforced magically and that allowed the relic to be hung around the carrier's neck.

Here I go, Honeymaren thought, after getting lost admiring the relic, and then took it, hung it from her neck adjusting it to the height of her chest and proceeded calmly to perform the procedure to open it, putting her hands in position and making the corresponding movement; once opened a powerful green glow bathed the half of the room towards which Honeymaren was standing, after that the young sorcerer conjured the control spells by appearing the green magical rings on her right forearm and a magical symbol of the same glow in the palm of her hand.

"I can do this." Honeymaren said, then turned to the door of the room and walked decisively towards it, Elsa meant to say something, but somehow she knew that it was best to allow her to concentrate, the magic she now had at her disposal was of an excessive power.

In the room of relics chaos reigned, almost everything was lost, falling into the portals that seemed to devour everything without end or being destroyed by the forces acting in the place. The young sorcerer concentrated, took a proper position and extended her hand towards the center of the place, also raising her left hand directed to the same place, and then, slowly but firmly, began to rotate the magic symbol that she carried in front of her hand to the left. When the magic began to act the young woman was surprised by what she saw, but even more was the young Snow Queen, standing a few steps behind her, trying not to interrupt her, and wrapped in the cloak that sought to protect her from any unforeseen events.

The stage in the room during the mighty spell that Honeymaren was doing was something that had to be lived to believe it, things began to come out of the portals and return to their places faster and faster, the size of the portals was constantly diminishing and soon began to disappear one by one until there was no trace of them, finally the things that the explosion of the glass destroyed began to repair themselves and returned to their places, and in the end the crystal that caused everything ended up repaired and on its pedestal.

"It's done." Honeymaren said, and promptly dissipated the control spells, closed The Eye of Agamotto and dropped to her knees.

"Honey!" Elsa shouted, dropping next to her girlfriend and wrapping her arms around her.

"I'm fine... just a little exhausted." Honeymaren said to Elsa's ear, resting her face against her neck.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, don't worry." Honeymaren said, sitting up straight and staring at Elsa's worried eyes.

"You look so cute when you worry..." Honeymaren said calmly.

"Silly, this is not the time for you to say that." Said Elsa blushing.

The girls' gaze intertwined for a few seconds and at that moment the cloak surrounded them, making their faces even closer.

"Why is it doing this?" Elsa asked.

"She must know... I want to do this... " Said Honeymaren, nimbly passing her arms behind her girlfriend and then giving her a tender kiss, being able to get momentarily lost in the jubilee that the fine touch of her lips gave her, all of course, under the privacy that her newly acquired accomplice had given them.

Less than a minute passed when the cloak, with the same will that she used to put the girls together, separated them and lifted them from the floor to make them stand, settling on Honeymaren's back and stretching to get Elsa a few steps away. The girls were about to reproach the cloak for interrupting their intimate moment when they heard the footsteps near the door and rushed to wipe the traces of their kisses that were still around their mouths; Honeymaren cleaned herself with the cloak and it complained vigorously about it.

"You incited us, now shut up!" Honeymaren said, knowing full well that the cloak did not speak, but referring to that curious series of ideas that seemed to be able to transmit to her intuitively.

Soon the door of the room opened and The Ancient One calmly entered calmly, sweeping the place with her eyes until finally setting her gaze on the young couple.

"The Cloak of Levitation came to you! It's is quite a feat; it is usually... capricious." The Ancient One said as she saw the peculiar magical cloak fixed on Honeymaren.

I didn't think I'd see this twice in such a short time, the Supreme Sorceress thought to herself.

"It did. Without it i could not have repaired what happened here." Answered the young sorcerer.

"I'm glad you're not trying to hide it."

"I don't think there is any way, even if I tried."

The Ancient One laughed slightly when listening to that answer.

"What happened was my fault master, I broke the crystal." Elsa said, stepping forward.

"That's not true, I pushed her." Honeymaren said, putting herself on par with the young Queen.

"The important thing is that it is behind now and that you have proven to be able to handle an emergency; also young Honeymaren, the way you used the Eye of Agamotto was amazing for your first time, my best apprentice in my own dimension could not resist the temptation and his first time using it was somewhat... hasty," said The Ancient One, walking towards the girl.

"Thank you... I knew it was a risk, but I felt that the risk of not doing it would be greater."

"And you're right, that crystal channels interdimensional energy, if those portals kept multiplying out of control they would have swallowed this whole place."

"And why didn't you intervene?" Asked Elsa.

"I was confident that you would make it, your skills at this point should be able to handle it... It was an impromptu test." Said The Ancient One calmly, standing in front of the young women.

"Thanks for the confidence," said Honeymaren. "I will return the relic to its place." She added, taking the powerful device that hung around her neck.

"It won't be necessary." Said The Ancient One to the young woman's surprise.

"What do you mean?"

"The time has come for you to use it... come with me." Said The Ancient One in a more serious tone, and then the young women left the room behind her.

The Ancient One led the girls to the huge window, and as she stood before it the calm image of the lake outside the sanctuary on a rainy afternoon was visible, the calm of its surface being only interrupted by the drops that a gentle rain was depositing on it.

"Do you see anything unusual?" The Ancient One asked.

"No, the lake looks calm as usual." Honeymaren said.

"And there are hardly more blooming flowers." Added Elsa.

"Look out over your little valley." Said The Ancient One, and that's when the young women noticed it.

When the young couple looked beyond the mountains they could distinguish a thick white mist which they recognized at once.

"The forest is shrouded in fog again?" Asked the young Northuldra, more confused than surprised.

"It can't be." Said Elsa, equally confused.

"It's not what you think, that fog is your ally this time, because Null has learned of our location and the plan to stop him, it made him furious and now he's heading this way, pushing hard at every moment. That barrier is the last front of the spirits of the forest to gain some time."

"But how, how did that demon discover it?" Asked Elsa, a little upset.

"The portals." Said Honeymaren, thoughtfully and with a somewhat downcast countenance.

"Then it was my fault." Said Elsa in a worried but determined voice. "I must go and fix it." Added the young woman, ready to go and help the other spirits, and turning around as if to start walking up to the stairs.

"We talked about this, we both had a part in this, don't take the whole burden." Said Honeymaren, taking Elsa by the arm, "We have been training for this, we can do it together."

"Honeymaren is right, Elsa." The Ancient One interrupted. "There were several possible futures up to this point, but in all of them Null ended up finding out one way or another about this time, it had to happen, just as the confrontation is destined to be."

"The spirits, are they in danger?" Asked Elsa, turning to look again into the fog.

"You don't have to worry, when I perceived that the portals had opened and the dimensional energy was flowing erratically disturbing the spell I had placed over the sanctuary to hide us it didn't take long for the spirits to investigate what was happening; we knew what was coming so we made an agreement, they would buy time, but they would withdraw when the situation reached critical levels. Null arrived weakened in this dimension, but he only needs a short time to recover and while the spirits in full strength were able to contain him initially the power of the dark being increases constantly while that of the spirits decreases, we all knew from the beginning that the most they could do in this situation would be to gain time, the rest is up to you.

"How much time do we have before it comes attempting to destroy the sanctuary?"

"Not only will he come for the sanctuary, but for you, its greatest threats, the fifth spirit... and a new Sorcerer Supreme for this dimension.

"What!? I can't be the Sorcerer Supreme, that's you."

"Not from this dimension, remember? I have to go back to where I belong, training someone who could defend this dimension from Null was my purpose for coming here from the beginning. Said The Ancient One, with her usual calm and wise tone.

"You're right." Honeymaren said, a bit worried.

"You'll do great Honey, I know you will." Elsa said, holding the hand of the young sorcerer.

"Most likely Null will be here in a day, by the moment when my time here is up, I don't have the power to stretch the time in the sanctuary anymore, but I can extend that time a little longer with one last trick up my sleeve." The Ancient One said, concentrating on casting a spell.

"Wait, we knew you couldn't intervene for reasons we still can't know, but won't you be able to see the outcome? Honeymaren asked.

"I'm afraid that can't be." The Ancient One said, breaking her concentration. When the time comes I will have waited as long as possible to get back to where I belong, you will understand before I leave," The Ancient One added, and then conjured the mirror dimension in front of them and went into it. The young women shared a confused look for a moment and then followed her.

"Nothing here affects the real world, does it? Honeymaren asked, who despite having known the mirror dimension had never conjured it at the request of her teacher.

"That's right, in this place the spiritual power spreads almost unlimitedly, using it sooner would have increased the chance of Null finding you, but now it knows where you are and concentrates his energy on reaching the sanctuary so he will not come to attack you on this plane."

"Can we train a little longer here?" Elsa asked.

"That's right, remember not to part with Honeymaren, only she can get you out of here through a portal." The young women nodded to that comment. "I have delimited a small section of the mirror dimension to the space that encompasses the sanctuary, using the magic that I still have; in this situation I estimate that I will be able to double Null's original arrival time. You'll have the time equivalent to two days, make the most of it from now on." The Ancient One said with great security in her voice.

"Thank you," Honeymaren said.

"We won't miss this opportunity," Elsa said.

"I know you won't, now listen, there are things you need to prioritize. Elsa..."

"Yes?"

"Your magic can overcome others, that will be your most important skill against Null and the influence its magic could have on everything around it, in addition to its obvious ability to attack you, focus on that.

"Sure," Elsa said, paying attention to the indication.

"Honeymaren."

"Yes master?"

"That Eye of Agamotto is not special just because of the ancient and powerful relic it is, you probably found something irregular when you studied it." The Ancient One said.

"I think I did... in the bookstore I found two books, with two different descriptions of the Powers of the Eye despite talking about the same relic.

The Ancient One was pleased to hear those words from Honeymaren.

Your dimension is located right in the middle of two others where the function of the relic differs, this dimension is a special case, a meeting point, and because of that this Eye of Agamotto can exercise the power of both surrounding dimensions; I rarely got to see this on my multiverse travels.

"Is that possible?... I mean, clearly it is, but the odds are..."

"Remember, it doesn't all have to make sense.

"You're right..."

"Control over the Time and the Mystical Arts of Light; that's a huge power, you have to use it responsibly and continue to constantly strengthen your skills to deal with any threat.

"I will do it; you can take it for granted." Honeymaren said decisively.

"Excellent... now I have to go make the last preparations for my departure." The Ancient One said, conjuring a portal. "As long as you use the mirror dimension in the sanctuary, time will continue to pass slightly slower, yet you don't have much, make it worth it." The Ancient One said, and then disappeared through the portal.
