"This is?" Ellergest held the bottle.

"It's a mana potion. The other day I learned Alchemy so I gave it a try… Is it good?" Wondered the little Kyle, his red eyes always captivated Ellergest, he was adorable and pure-hearted, someone Ellergest always felt he needed to protect with everything he had.

"Amazing, these things cost a lot of gold, you know? You could probably slowly build a capital if you make more, and you could even move out to another safer place where they don't know about you." Ellergest said with a smile, patting Kyle's head.

"But… I don't want to leave you." Sighed Kyle, hugging Ellergest.

"Kyle…" Sighed Ellergest. "You will have to eventually leave this place, you know? I am not being harsh with you, but this… it is for the best of your safety."

"Will you come with me?" Kyle asked.

Although it hurt him, Ellergest had to tell Kyle the truth, giving him false hope wasn't a good thing.
