Kapitel 72: Back at the House of Black

"What do you mean this morning?!" Obsi asked pointedly. "You have been missing for a month!"

"A month?!" Zell replied. "There is no way I was gone for a whole month!"

"You were!" Obsi continued. "It was the oddest thing. We got worried the second day, because you are a human doing something designed for dragons. We went in to check on you and you were there. The room was completely empty, nothing. We panicked thinking we had inadvertently killed you."

"I was gone?" Zell was confused. "I was in the room the whole time… wasn't I?"

"No, you were definitely not in the room." Obsi replied.

"So, all of that happened and it wasn't just in my head?" Zell asked.

"What happened?" Obsi asked back. "Please tell me what went on. How you vanished."

"Well, it was like you all said." Zell explained. "I went inside to find another me. We fought and I somehow managed to win."

"So, you killed your double?" Obsi asked, shocked.
