Chương 101: [Bonus chapter] Felt Like… Mutiny

As if on an instinct, Emma knew it. Her feet bounced to the window and to her surprise, she saw Nephie flying too low. "Nephie!" she squealed as she waved her hand to her. The dragon let out a screech that was akin to happiness on seeing her. Nephie swooped down and landed a few feet away just over the edge of the waterfall and tucked her wings back. 

"She has been here since you were unwell, circling the skies, looking out for you." 

"Goddess!" Emma said excitedly. 

Shira saw how happy Emma was when she saw her dragon. The look of misery erased from her face. She felt happy for Lazarus for a long time. She wiped her hands on her apron and started winding up. After a while she said, "I am leaving, Emma. Call me when you need me, okay." Emma nodded with a smile. Shira snapped her fingers. The instant she did that the entire cottage was surrounded by a raging storm and soon everything disappeared, leaving only an apple tree beneath which Emma was.
