Zoriel felt his strength coming back to him, as he could see the wounds he had fade. All except the one on his eye, he was sure that he had survived the worst thing he imagined would kill him, and he had gained something in return…a fragment.“There,” the man said calmly, looking at Zoriel with a smile. “Your injuries are healed, and there isnt anything else going to hurt you.”Zoriel was looking at his hands and his legs, even though the goo had managed to heal him and closed the opening to his wounds. The scars he had gotten from Xer’s claws remained on his body even though their openings were closed.The thought of his half-brother attacking him still lingered, and it was something that wouldn't be removed.“Tell me something,” the man says with a smile. His gaze fixed on Zoriel as he was about to ask the question. “Which family do you come from?”Zoriel was surprised, but he didnt think there was any problem. The man had saved him from a monster that was trying to kill him and als

“This shouldn't be possible,” Rhys said, standing up and moving close to Zoriel to see the tiny ember of blue flame. He knew it wasn’t natural for a person like Zoriel to have a fragment.He looked at the boy, then at the ember. Out of sheer curiosity, he stretched his hand to touch the ember.But once he touched the flame, as expected, it burnt him. He raised his hand into the urn.He noticed something; even though his hand was in the urn, it was meant to take the pain, but nothing was happening.The pain was still there, and the flame hurt more than it would have.‘Strange, that tiny blue flame has three times the sting a normal flame would have. And the urn isn't numbing the pain, it still feels like I just got burnt even though time has passed.’Rhys looked at the boy; his mind was filled with many questions. He tried again, but this time, he would see if he would be able to tap into the source of his power.Then again, he felt nothing. No trace of Anwu, and the boy was something

Zoriel sat down in the waterfall, looking around as he waited for Rhys to come back with what he had set out to get. It was clear that they were going to be there the entire night, and whether they were going to do anything to get out of the situation. Two minutes later, Rhys came back holding part of the grizzly in his hand. A smile on his face, and from what Rhys could tell, he was getting ready for something that would set them on for something far greater. “We have meat for dinner!” Rhys chuckled looking at Zoriel, sitting next to the boy. He started to set up certain up the firewood, it was strange. Zoriel was looking at him, noticing how he had his blade held tightly. “You have something to ask?” Rhys turned to the boy, startling Zoriel. He didnt know how it was possible for Rhys to even know that he was looking at him. “How?” the boy asked, looking at the swordsman. Rhys chuckled, looking at him. He placed the a piece of dust on the firewood turning to Zoriel, he titled

Back at the house, Emrys was in the kitchen trying to help Suin make their meal. She took a tray, about to place the meal on the table, when suddenly a calm breeze swept past her.She lost hold of the tray, as it fell to the floor.The noise from the tray alerted Suin. She ran into the room to find Emrys standing there, her hand over her mouth, her eyes watery.“Sister,” Suin whispered, slowly approaching Emrys to see if she would find out what happened.“What happened?” Suin asked, holding Emrys closely.Emrys turned to look at her sister. She couldn't get the words out, but it was clear enough for anyone who had eyes.“Zoriel, something happened to him…” Emrys cried, her heart couldn't hold knowing that there was a chance that her son was in mortal danger.Suin understood what was going on, and it was clear to her that she couldn't get her sister to stop worrying out of nowhere.“Sister, we can only pray for his return. Worrying about him like this won't bring him back home.” Suin c
