Kapitel 76: Questioning

The night became darker when the clouds became dense overhead. Anastasia looked at Darla who was now sitting along with Aidan, huddled up in a fur. They both looked pale. At first she thought she should talk to her as to why she ran towards the red flowers when she was cautioned not to go there. Anastasia had an inkling that Darla knew that she shouldn't have ventured into the field. Then why did she go? Drops of rain hampered her thoughts. Thankful that the rain would subdue the light scent of the flowers, she walked to her tent just in time. Soon big droplets pelted the ground. It became absolutely dark except for the lightning that occasionally flashed and streaked its glow across the field. "Zlu… come back…"

Ileus and Kaizan rushed inside. 

"What about Zlu?" she asked, staring at their tense faces. 

"He won't come, Ana," Kaizan replied.
