The Shield

When Rhys said those words directly, Lyn did not know how to respond. She somehow managed to slip away since Allen appeared needing Rhys for something. But she knew if she went back to her room, then Rhys would go there too. So she went to a place where he would least expect her. The place she just arrived at was her younger sister Shaaryas's area. Due to her younger sibling being away, Lyn knew that there would be nobody there. Sure enough, there was not a soul in sight. 

There is another reason why she came here.

Her gaze fell on the large tree in the center of the yard. It was an unusual tree with silver-colored leaves, and yet Lyn found it beautiful.
