Kapitel 171: Arrival

LAIS

"I…am planning to do this," Elen says.

And then a white glow engulfs us. I close my eyes to protect them from the overbearing light. 

Wait, this isn't Len's spiritual presence. This isn't her spell.

Then who….?

I open my eyes. It takes a few seconds to adjust to the still glowing light, but when I do, the first thing I see is a crimson robe, fluttering in the wind.

A crimson robe….

Len. That is what first comes to my mind.

I immediately turn, my body instinctively detecting where she is. 

I catch her just as she's falling to the ground. She is shaking so badly, and all I can do to help her is to grip her tightly, to ensure her that I'm right here.

  "I'm right here, I'm right here," I whisper to her, gripping her tightly.

I don't know what else to do. All I can do is to assure her that I am beside her, that she is not facing this alone. That's what little I can do for her right now.
