Blood Sacrifice

It took a few minutes for the pain of branding to disappear.

I did not feel any joy in it, since the seal had imprinted itself into my body and soul. It is so powerful that I could remove it.

It is made from the very powerful energies that I could do nothing against.

These energies have a nefarious feeling that made me shudder whenever I concentrate on them.

I felt like I had read about it, but couldn't find where or what; I will remember it soon, but even when I do, what good it will do?

It is too powerful to do anything to it and even if I somehow dealt against it. I won't be able to escape from here.

There are twelve freaking Earth Sovereigns here. 

Except for one, all of them kept their soul sense invisible, but I could sense them. Their soul sense has spread through this giant cavern, and they are seeing everything.
