Bab 757: I Will Never Give Up

Not too long ago,

The cool air of Lori's cave brushed over Asher as he sat there, his head bowed in silence. The darkness from the cave's entrance seemed to swallow him whole.

He ran a hand through his long moon-white hair, trying to collect his thoughts, but all he could hear was the pounding of his own heart, the weight of his actions pressing down on him like a heavy stone.

He had come here hoping to find Lysandra, hoping that she had managed to evade Drakar's pursuit and would be here, waiting for him. 

He had to find her. He couldn't let her die, not after everything that had happened between them.

But to his dismay, she wasn't. He had told her to come here if she needed refuge, knowing the dangers she constantly had to face.

But the silence of the cave, and the absence of her presence, told him what he feared the most—she was still out there, somewhere, trying to stay alive, hiding from Drakar's wrath.
