“We are ready to ride.” A voice almost whispered near Auria’s ear.
She looked up, her tears had long since dried since the near scare that she had when the enemy managed to enter her dreams. She wanted to run back to her home, see her friends and make sure that her family was alright. Her heart would not be still as she felt the restlessness even though she saw her friend standing beside her grandfather almost two hours ago. Ever since the dream shook her from her sleep, she had never been able to go back to it for fear of opening herself further to prodding from the enemy. She so wished that she could leave this to Jenny and Lysander but she made her promise to her uncle and her grandfather. She will end this monstrosity even if it kills her.
She guessed that the stakes were too high now that the enemy knows what they have been doing.
