Chapter 110: Dragon Trial Part 4

The call to sleep was too great for Zell to bear and he passed out inside his barrier. He had no idea how much time had passed but when he reopened his eyes, he found himself back in the courtyard of paths. The emblem of the black dragons now burning with a black flame and the sealed door beneath the seals now open.
