Ch. 456 Thousands of bats

Spending only a single day to settle in the freed magical creatures and a night with his women, Elric once again met up with his parents to hunt down hidden mage towers in an effort to find Ciara a paramore. This time only the three of them would be going as even Elric had limits to his ability to protect others in the face of what could be thousands of angy bats.

Of course they took their time going to the one cave that Elric was all but one hundred percent certain the mage's riddle like clues spoke of, because he wanted to ensure that they gave the venomous bats plenty of time to find themselves a good comfortable spot to drift off into dreamland. If it was just he and his father going, or even perhaps his children, the bats would not be a concern at all, but his mother, Ciara, was a human woman. All be it one with considerable amounts of magical powers gifted to her. How she was still very physically frail even in comparison to Elric's youngest children.
