Bab 359: Calm

The morning sun cast a gentle glow as Alexander and Gav returned to White Falls village. Alex and Zeke had actually planned for Gav to only leave the Black Forest during the night and under Alex's watch. The previous night had been a close call, as Gav's fascination with human technology had nearly led to his accidental separation from Alex. But despite a few close calls, Gav was somehow able to successfully keep his dangerous powers in check.

Now, as they reached the entrance of the forest, Gav was so quiet Alex couldn't help but tease him. "No sulking allowed, future king of darkness," he quipped, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. "The future king of darkness isn't allowed to sulk."

"Who's sulking? I'll simply resume my explorations once the sun sets." Gav replied flatly.

Alex chuckled. "Well, I don't recall Zeke granting you that permission, but perhaps you can make your case later today."
