The Three-Eyed Serpent and that fox were coming for him.
Marcus was certain of it. It was not the Double-Headed Raven King, who had followed him as he had initially feared, yet the presence of the serpent immediately brought the Six-Headed Twin-Winged Serpent to mind. The connection was too precise to be coincidence, too deliberate to ignore.
The idea that enemies could track someone across spatial rifts was unsettling. It was an ability that bordered on the absurd, yet Dominion was filled with monsters that wielded powers far beyond conventional understanding. Marcus could not help but wonder what would have happened if he had been even a second slower. Would the serpent have intercepted him mid-teleport and dragged him back through the rift by force?
