Chapter 680: Battle in the Library

⟬ The City of Archangel, the Sapphire Tower. ⟭ 

When everything was going her way... it always felt like there was a Burst Slime just around the next corner, ready to explode. 

That... was Coraline Heartsong's life in a faerie walnut shell. 

A few moons ago, she managed to solve a murder on a passenger airship without dying. She snagged a figuratively-hot boyfriend and a literally-hot fire elemental, while she was at it. 

But then... Lone had to go. He had to travel because of his job-- not that Coraline could really be upset about that. She fell in love with him for him, his work ethic included. 

She was the same way. She put her everything into what she did, work or not. Honestly, that didn't leave her much time to think about her boyfriend... and she was surprised that it had been so many moons since she'd last seen him.
