Malachi's sleep was troubled, filled with dreams of a sunflower field where a human male and a dragon female couple reveled in love and joy. These dreams stirred an unfamiliar emotion within him, a sense of longing and connection that he couldn't quite comprehend.
As he woke from his restless slumber, his gaze fell upon Ravina, still in a peaceful sleep beside him. Her complexion had improved, and the wounds on her neck were gradually fading, leaving behind a mark that resembled a crescent moon.
With a gentle touch to her face, Malachi silently urged her to awaken, his mind restless until he could see her eyes open once more, but she remained sleeping.
Leaving her side with a sigh he started his morning with a flurry of activity as he faced the daunting task of rebuilding their ravaged village with his people. Malachi took charge, overseeing the construction of lookout stations atop the mountains, ensuring their vigilance against future threats.
