Chapitre 171: Dance with Me

ELRETH

Elreth wasn't sure why she was surprised that all of the Anima were at the circle before she got there. She wasn't sure why she'd expected to wait. But of course not. Already emotional from her father's intrusion before they left the cave, she was shaky and near tears...

He'd shown up at the last minute, just as she and her mother were hugging, and he'd stared down at the two of them looking like he might cry. 

"My precious girls," he murmured. 

Her mother's eyes welled, and Elreth was clearing her throat. Then her father stepped forward and her mother stepped away and Elreth frowned. But Dad took something from her mother's hand, then turned to her and she was suddenly locked in his love.
