Despite Laina insisting that Kol was to remain in the Temple of the Moon to recuperate further, he refused.
"I am your bodyguard, wherever you go, I go," Kol said as he placed his hand over his heart.
Unable to win the argument, Laina finally gave in. After a good night's rest, Kol's wounds were healing well. Even better than the High Priestess had predicted. For their travel, she made sure to pack them some extra medicine and salves.
"Thank you for your hospitality, High Priestess Shylla. Will we meet again soon?" Laina asked before they departed.
Shylla nodded, "I believe the next time we meet will be in Kinshearth."
She bowed, with respect to Laina and said, "Rest assured, your Highness. You have our Goddess's full support, and you have mine."
Kol is our loyal young man! His devotion to Laina is admirable, is it not? Who's your favorite side character in the story so far? Let me know in the comments!
My favorite is Margaret! I might be a little biased on that one~ :P
I would like to apologize for Kragen's behavior in this chapter! I know this chapter is hard to stomach for some, my apologies on that!
<King? Knight? Lord? They are all my husbands!> is out now!
