Bab 1323: Returning To The Floor Of Asgard

"Acedia, I'm back," William said as he walked towards the Spring of Life. 

He was still carrying Erinys in his arms as if afraid that the latter would be taken away from him by the God of Death if he left her behind.

Several tendrils of hair emerged from the water and grabbed hold of William's body. The Half-ling in his arms started to panic, because this scene was similar to what happened to her in the Underworld.

"Don't be afraid," William held Erinys firmly in his arms and tried to coax her. "She will not hurt you."

Erinys clung to William's robes as if her life depended on it, while his body was lifted into the air and pulled towards the center of the spring where Acedia was waiting for him.

Without even asking for permission, the Half-Elf and the Half-ling were pulled into the spring waters, making Erinys scream a soundless scream.
