Capítulo 59: Shadow of the Past

Arianell carried the crate full of bags filled with soil and sprouting branches. It was heavy and she wondered how she was going to bring it all the way.

Today, she planned on visiting Lester and Jace. She promised to bring them supplies and trees to plant but kept postponing because of various reasons occupying her mind. She hopes they will be still there and not run away thinking she abandoned them.

To her surprise, Luan came to help. She wasn't expecting him to go with her, as he was very wary of people. The last time they went to Deneb together, he stayed behind the wall and didn't enter the city, waiting for her to finish her errands patiently.

Luan got on the horse first, but this time he waited for her approval before helping her up. As he extended his hand, Arianell put her own in his, accepting the unspoken invitation. She placed her foot into the stirrup, feeling the strength of Luan's hand guiding her.
