EFLIELYDIA'S POVI appear in Eflie with and army of eccrifytes. They are about a hundred of them, and two of my sisters also are here with me. It is the night we have all longed for. The night we attack the caves of Eflie, slay the dragons and get hold of the Callibra. “So we are here,” I declare and I turn back to look at my sisters. They both nod, and the army of a hundred eccrifytes growls as they await our command to match into the caves and rip the dragons apart. I see the caves of Eflie before me, beyond the hill which we stand. I can see that a fire had been lit at the midst of the caves —Confirming that the figan which we sent this morning really saw them here. “Gazas!” I shout, stretching my hands forward and causing the eccrifytes to charge forward down the hills and heading for the caves. They is one remaining behind on my command. It will be the one to take us to grab the Callibra when the dragons become distracted by the eccrifytes in a str
TOWER OF GROILANDIÁLYDIA'S POV“Ahhh,” I groan with so much anger as I storm into my room. Pushing the door so hard that it slapped against each other. Sister Odessa trails me in and she pleads with me to take it easy on my self.“Calm down Lydia, calm down,” she says to me and I ignore her as I walk towards my mirror. I raise my hair and uncover the cut from where I landed on the wall. “You see, how can I calm down? My wound have never took this long to heal, two if our sisters are dead. How do you expect me to calm down?" I yell at her and she sighs.“Their death is for all of us to bear the grief,” she says to me and I cast the brush against my mirror furiously. The mirror breaks and I become even more frustrated. “Why are you not healing as fast as you used to?” She asks, and for every answer I give to her, the level of my frustration increase. “How did you get the wound in the first place?” She adds and I try to calm myself down as I sit on the chair bef
CAVES OF EFLIEIASIAS' POVSeveral moments have passed after the fight, and we are recovering the energy we lost. Everyone is in their caves, but I'm outside keeping watch to make sure that no eccrifyte army attacks us when we least expect. I know that they won't be stupid enough to attack the same night they were defeated, so I'm not putting much into it. I'm pacing at the midst of the caves without anything else to do than to sip on the drink Renee made for us. It is supposed to help us heal the fractured bones in our body and restore our energy. I walk to stand by Elvio's cave and I see that he is asleep. He must be exhausted, and I want to make sure others are also alright so I go ahead to check on Domminick and Dalmatius also. They both are asleep, snoring so loudly and from that, I can also tell how exhausted they are.I decide to check on Renee to see how she's coping after what happened moments ago. I walk to stand at the entrance of the cave she is in, and I see that she is

The figan takes me through the cloak as we arrive at the gate and the cloak seals up behind us. I pick a torch and I light it with a snap of my fingers.Only Varia, Althea and Melanie knows that I haven't been in the castle, so I make sure to keep my coming in discreet. I walk into the inner gate and I walk straight to Althea’s room. I knock once and I hear footsteps approaching the door from the other side. In the near moment, the door handle turns and the door opens up. “Nika!” Althea exclaims, her face can't hide the joy that fills her heart to see me back in the castle. “Sister, I have missed you,” I say to her as we embrace. “Come In,” she whispers, pulling me inside her room cautiously.“How has it been here, did sister Cera or anyone else realize a thing about my departure?” I ask her and s
WILDERNESS OF THE EASTDAHLIA’S POV Moonlight has fallen atop our heads, we are sitting in our various resting positions and Elena as she has been since sunset is still meditating. A strong wind passes by us from the west, raising fallen leaves and dry grasses from our midst. The wind reaches Elena, and she gasps,. darting her eyes to the skies and the smoke in her eyes begin to whirl quickly. She basks in the wind that whirls around her and our attention is drawn to her.

A message which only Elena can read and interpret to us.The whirling wind is sucked into her nose and a sudden silence floods our midst. “Mistress, what is it you see?” I whisper to her as we all wait for her to speak the message 8 us. “The Callibra has changed hands.

Melanie comes to hand me the spell book and I nod. “If truly they are still unconscious as Nika said, they must be lying in one of those caves,” I whisper and Althea nods. She is smart enough to know that I want her to go ahead and check the caves. Melanie follows her behind, and they both walk cautiously towards the first cave.

TOWER OF LIVÁDIAIASIAS' POVI hear a cock crow, and within my half conscious state I can still tell how strange it is as they are no cocks in Eflie. If the cock crows, it means that it is past dawn. I open my eyes as I gain my consciousness and my eyes meet utter darkness.It takes me several moments of confusion before recalling what happened last night after we fought the eccrifytes. I recall going to check on Renee, an- I don't remember any else. I feel the need to stand up to me feet, but after a trial to move my feet, I realize that I might be already on my feet.

I try to hide it like I have been doing it ever since I got back, but it seems she is too smart to be fooled.“Sister, you are crying,” She rushes down to me and since she's now aware, I feel no need for pretence anymore, Instead I give in to the urge to hug her. I really need it right now.“Talk to me,” she demands to know what is making me cry, and even before I speak, I break down even deeper in my tears. I'm still hugging her, and she won't Stop patting my back. “You-you won't understand even if I told you,” I sob.“Try me. Walk me out of your room if I fail to comprehend,” She says,
