Seth appeared from the darkness. Hilda knew that something is happening, something that she could only grasp. They were a group of Dragon worshipers. Their duty was to protect the people from the dream walkers and every other sort of monster. They were more than prepared for it. Hilda knew that and she also knew that Damon has disappeared from her mind, from her thoughts, like he was never there. She couldn't explain how. But she fell it. The bond was broken, if there was any bond in the beginning. Was there? Was it all real or just a dream… a nightmare? She knew that John still loves her. John… the merchant… of the guild… of that family…

Everything was clear to her now. She knew only little about him. Everything that was on the surface, nothing underneath. There is more to the puzzle that is him. That was a true fact. Some strange feeling told her so. Was it all truly like that? Was returning love that magic? She hoped so. Her mind is unclouded. Everything is precise.

For seven days she has drunk the potion, the current situation is favorable. The effects of the dream walker are for now stopped, but he will be back. She was the only one that knew something that he wanted. It was in her blood. Blood. Blood of the Dragon. She didn't know was it a curse or a gift. As time went on, she started to change. Her powers were more than welcome now.
