Chapter 159: Chapter 158 - Trusting the Process

Drako didn't hesitate to fully explain how he had survived the fire and how Goben was back in Alusa after he had been banished. He skipped the part of how his soul was wandering and furious, seeking for revenge. That was private, they didn't need to know that.
