Silverwing let her goddaughter go before giving Lith a deep bow.
"Thanks for everything you have done for Epphy. I've never been so happy to be completely wrong about someone. For that, I renew my apologies for how I treated you during our first meetings.
"Bonding with you saved Elp- I mean, Solus' life and it even gave her Ripha's seven streaks." Silverwing gently caressed Solus' head, passing her open hand through Solus' hair like a comb. "It's almost as if Ripha is still alive and she's staring at me.
"It makes our bond even stronger." She leaned her head against Solus', letting their multi-colored hair mix.
"Don't mention it." Lith replied. "Bonding with Solus saved my life as well. She owes me nothing. We are equal partners in our crazy relationship."
"I'm glad to hear it." Silverwing nodded, before standing in front of Kamila. "Please, take good care of them, of your child, and yourself. I beg you, don't repeat Threin's mistake."
