Don't Deal With the Devil

Nina walked out of the forest with Sara and Abel, seeing Aella standing in front of Arad's house with Roberta by her side. "You already found her?"

"She was in the market, easy to catch." Aella approached Nina with a smile. Puff! Zephyr appeared above her head, "I sniffed her out from memories. Impressive, right?"

Nina tilted her head, staring at the strange creatures with an observing gaze, "A spirit of the wilds, a pixie?" She knew them. Some of the forest barbarians worshipped them, but not her.

"I'm more than that!" Zephyr puffed her chest.

Nina approached, glaring at her, "There is something strange about you. You're strong."

Zephyr started to sweat as Nina glared at her. She's dangerous at this close range. "Forget about me! Arad needs help. That one better has found what we need." She changed the subject, staring at Sara in the back.

"I did find the cursed metal, but there are some complications," Sara replied with a worried face, looking around in search of Arad.
