"Now it has been found," he said with obvious relief. "Keep the orb safe as you travel back to the castle. Do not let it fall into the hands of others."
Something in the sky caught his attention and not in a good way.
"Mars is shining bright tonight. I must take my leave." It was a rather cryptic farewell from Thereos and his hooves could be heard as he galloped away.
