The sun's first rays poured through the dense canopy of the elvin town, casting dappled patterns on the ground. The tranquil beauty of the morning was a sharp contrast to the storm brewing in Alex's mind.
He and the dragon siblings, Z'yna and Ryzel, had just finished breakfast in the elvin sanctuary.
It was one of his signature meals, maybe so, the dragon siblings asked him if he could cook again. Alex had no choice but to agree, not to mention cooking has become a habit for him, it helps him to calm down and think properly.
The clink of a cup being set down pulled him from his reverie. Z'yna's golden eyes locked onto his.
"Should we go depart now?" she asked softly.
Alex nodded, standing up. "Alright, if you are full, let's go. The others are waiting."
The three of them made their way to the Elvins' Special Hall, a grand chamber built within the roots of one of the towering trees.
