Enough

Francis and Annak examined the boy that resembled Ander from head to toe. He was not like the other illusions that they had met in the palace. He didn't absorb their memories or try to fool them and as far as Annak could tell he was somehow connected to the maze of illusions they were stuck in.

The blood from Ander was giving her chills, she couldn't put her finger on what was causing the illusions and the prison but she was roughly guessing that whoever it was knew Ander and was using his memories to cause them harm.

Her instincts were finding it hard to let go of the possibilities of Ander being behind everything. It wouldn't surprise her too much if the boy did turn out to be alive after all no one knew the trick to cheating death than the dragon king.

"We should find Alex and the others and figure a way out of this," Francis said unable to bear the sight before him for much longer. Seeing Ander hurt like that was making his heart hurt with guilt.
