Capítulo 143: The Elven Cry (5) Joining The Fray

Aurelia raised an eyebrow, her gaze thoughtful. "And you think sitting up here, watching their kingdom burn, is a better option?"

Her words cut through the tension like a blade, and for a moment, I considered snapping back with something sharp, something biting. But the truth of her statement lingered in the air, undeniable. The elven kingdom, nestled within the forest, was ablaze, its once-thriving beauty now reduced to an inferno. The sounds of battle echoed in the distance, desperate and wild, and yet, here we stood, removed from the chaos. Watching.

I narrowed my eyes, thinking quickly. "It's not about doing nothing," I said. "It's about doing the right thing. Rushing in without a plan will only get us killed, and I don't intend to die for their misplaced pride."

Aurelia tilted her head, her lips curving into a smirk. "Oh? And here I thought you enjoyed a bit of recklessness. You have the power, Dravis. Use it."
