Chapter 21

I continue to keep healing Caleb with my magic when a thought crosses Leon's mind.

“Hey Amethyst, you said that the king and his servants were already dead when you got there,” Leon said.

“Yeah why”

“Any idea on how?” Leon asked.

“From what I could tell it was some sort of giant creature. One of its claw marks was bigger than two full grown men” I said as Leon began to think.

“Doesn't that seem odd to anyone else” Leon said, aloud to no one in particular.

“Odd how?” Abigail asked.

“The starting signal for the attack was the castle gate collapsing was it not….. there was no attack magic or any kind of explosion…. The only way for the castle gate to be knocked down by that much destruction is by some sort of giant creature” Leon said.

“Which means whatever that beast was it killed the king before the start of the invasion” I said, finishing Leon's thought. Leon gives a nod indicating I am right.
