บท 478: She Heard The Screams

“Now is not the time for this!” Lian interrupted, pushing between the former lovers.

“She’s right,” Talis added. “Ashleigh has already been here a very long time.”

Ashleigh looked at Talis with a furrowed brow.

“It’s only been a few hours at most…” she said.

Talis shook her head.

“We told you, time works differently here,” she said. “Hours can be days.….”

“What?!” Ashleigh shouted, standing from her chair. “You mean I’ve been asleep for days?”

“Most likely,” Talis nodded.

“Caleb is not going to handle that well… I need to get back!”

“Yes, you do,” Lian agreed. “There was much more I needed to explain, but above all else, we must ask for your help.”

“With what?” Ashleigh asked.

“You read Cain’s journals. You know about the mounds that he found, the power?”

Ashleigh nodded.

“Those were direct connections to the ley lines. He was right to destroy the ones he could, but the others must also be destroyed.”
