บท 232: Watching and Waiting (Ch.232)

Xenon was nowhere in sight in the outer cavern, but Neveah could sense he had been here recently.

The temperature in the cavern was warm, a great contrast from the chilling cold winds on the outside.

It was winter already, though Neveah was yet to witness the first snow, the days were all the more cold.

Yet, within Xenon's cavern, it was as warm as ever, balanced out by Xenon's natural fire energy.

Beyond that, Neveah could still pick up Xenon's scent...it was slightly faded but to Neveah, that much was already overwhelming.

"Not the best time to play the disappearing act, is it?" Neveah murmured with a quiet sigh.

Neveah knew she did not have much time, she was certain her visit to Mount Edar would not go unnoticed by the dragon guards.

Neveah could only hope they would turn a blind eye so she got to say what she needed, if not today, Neveah doubted she would find the will to come out in search of Xenon again.
