Capítulo 604: Just Say No

ELIA

Elia woke to the cave bright with the lights of the lanterns, but no noise. No Aymora bringing medicine, and no Reth having whispered meetings with anyone. Everything was… quiet. Peaceful. Lovely. She sighed happily.

Though Elia's first few days back in Anima were a blur now, the last few had been… almost peaceful. She still found herself hunted by fear, but all the rest was doing her good. She had gained a little bit of weight and was sleeping better. And as she assessed herself she was certain… she felt better today than she'd felt in weeks—and stronger, too. It helped that she hadn't had any contractions, or had to take any tonics for several days. She didn't even get the cramps on the side of her huge belly when she breathed deeply. Elia felt almost normal—and definitely rested, a sensation she hadn't enjoyed since before she left Anima to begin with.
