Chapter 856: 856. Safe And Sound

"Of course. I was getting a little ahead of myself. Please, assure your little siblings are safe and sound. And you, Illia, leave and go think about your apology to these travelers. They may have touched your ice but I know you do not mark the area to warn off travelers. Nor did you have a proper reason to kidnap their family without [properly speaking with them!" The ice dragon Illia flinched from Adiars' words and left the cavern as silently as possible. She knew that arguing would bring her only misfortune and pain. 

Having one less domineering presence in the carved cave was enough for all of them to relax to a degree and huddle around Midnight. She was no longer shivering in fear but she was far from alright. Her body had no injuries but she and Onyx had been shaken. "Brother, I am sorry for leaving without saying anything but I wanted to make sure sister was safe."
