The last guardian part 1

"Hey, I save you and this is how you treat me? I will be sure to remember this in the future" the tense atmosphere receded a bit as the group made their way outside to the two figures far away. Yun was the first to see them, his expression melting into a calm smile which Mark could not help but mirror back. 

"I see that you made it back safe and sound. Hopefully, it was not too much of a hassle to finish things off" The Guardian, Alex, was still polite but there was a certain edge to his words now, his brows tense. It felt like he was trying to hide something away from the party. 

Not that he would be able to because of Mark's new abilities and the properties of this world. Still, it was a cure effort on the other's part to spare the party some comfort and Mark really liked how the other presented it to them.
