Capítulo 224: Finally going back

As they walked along the bridge, Evie suddenly halted. She turned around for one last look of the grand view, committing it to mind and heart, before resolutely turning to the opposite way and walked on without turning back anymore. Evie and her men – plus a new companion – finally left.

When they arrived at the foot of the hill, Evie was surprised that Onyx was still waiting there, crouching at the very same spot where they had left him so many days ago. Seeing the large ebony dragon, Evie did not know why but she suddenly had the urge to run up to him and give him a hug.

However, Evie opted to approach him with measured steps and Onyx opened its large amber eyes to look steadily at her. Then Evie reached out her hand and touched his snout. Her face softened and her eyes turned gentle even as she flashed him a slight smile.
