Aylin asked with a puzzled tone, looking up in Dan's direction. His words were confusing, making no sense for Aylin as she instinctively looked in the direction of the shadows.

"But, those are just myths. We are nothing but mere mortals. Do you believe in those ages-old myths?"

Dan chuckled drily, noticing the disbelief in Aylin's eyes as he answered in a taunting tone, "Her Highness must be right." However, he lowered his voice in a husky whisper as he muttered, "But, there hide truths even in myths. So, it is not a wise idea to keep your eyes closed when the darkness has begun to intensify."
