Capítulo 110: Obscured Faces

Asher's eyes nearly popped as the soft, crimson light of the primal core of fire illuminated the spacious cave. He opened his mouth, closed it, then opened it again, like a beached fish. Only after a long, awkward silence did he leap on his feet and shout.

"Where did you get that? When? How? Why didn't I know about this?" He rushed to my side, his eyes shining with excitement and wonder.

I couldn't help as my grin widened. "Hey!" He glared at me. I chuckled, then extended my hand so he could properly see the primal core. He sat cross legged next to me and inspected the crystal in my palm. "It's… amazing." He very slowly and carefully reached towards it. "Can I touch it?"

I nodded. "Can you find the other one with this?" He glanced at me, then nodded. "I should be able to. I think." He slowly reached for it but hesitated right before his fingers touched the smooth surface. "It's hot."

I raised my eyebrows. Was it hot? I only faintly felt its warmth.
