dream. But I don’t think my science class is gonna go for this.
     
    ‘There are only a few on your world who are aware ours is real. The Sentry cut and control all Threads and memories that would allow us to exist on Earth. ’
     
    So you’re saying that whatever brought me here in the physical had the power to go right through this Great Dragon without the use of a Sylvan Light?
     
    ‘Yes. Cecil hadn’t finished fixing the Gate in the town of Berion before it was destroyed, yet there’s a good chance it has something to do with how you were brought here. ’
     
    None of this answers why anyone would want me here.
     
    ‘You have no idea just how important you are. ’
     
    Heh, if only that were true, Sybl replied, sadly. So do I get my own Ancient for awesome purposes?
     
    ‘You already have one. ’
     
    Sybl smiled in a blush as the dragon looked at her with an expression that refused to be cheated out from the topic.
     
    ‘ Now which one did you want?’ Cirrus asked as he looked about with his head to the stars, as if to calculate just how far every last one was.
     
    I thought you said these aren’t real?
     
    ‘Well, I never actually checked up close... ’
     
    Do I get any say in where I’m going next?
     
    ‘Not until you pick one, because I’m not flying us back down until you do. You’re going to have to be very focused in which one you pick out with your psi as well. ’
     
    She couldn’t pick a star—for she feared he would fly straight through to Earth if he went after it for real. She didn’t want to fly right back to it. So she set her focus on the moon. That one.
     
    Cirrus looked to where she did. ‘Hey, I said star. I’m not big enough to carry that one back. ’
     
    Who says it’s not a star?
     
    ‘The Texts. The simple fact it doesn’t glow by itself... ’
     
    Well, if this moon is just a reflection, then everything is a reflection of light up here, including the stars and nothing is glowing entirely by itself or has any weight of its own.
     
    ‘You are just as hard to reason with as Cecil is. Alright, well in that case I’ll have to come back for it. ’
     
    Don’t think I won’t hold you to it, Sybl teased.
     
    ‘I wouldn’t have it any other way,’ Cirrus smiled as he flew over her and pushed her with a gush of wind from his wings back to Aster. But she wouldn’t squeak or cry out as she fell silently, and held out one hand for him to catch her. For her heart knew that it would never have to fall alone again.
     

14: L O V E L Y

    Kas didn’t understand the entirety of what Hain was doing, all that he did know for certain was that the older phelan had taken his madness to a new depth. He looked twenty meters down into the Chasm where Hain stood on the wind-ripping edge of an extending crevice. Do you have any idea what you are doing?
     
    “If you have any better ideas that stand a chance in getting that girl away from a lot of dragons, I’m all-ears. Otherwise, females are best spoken to when they have only two options.” Hain caught some control over the Threads around him then and lowered his hand as his long, straight brown hair settled down with his hands at his sides.
     
    Options here being...?
     
    “Kill you or talk to you. Does this look like enough space? ”
     
    For what? Are you flying across?
     
    “No, not me. Just the devil I summoned. ”
     
    Kas looked the other way in the Chasm as a pair of purple wings flew under him and stopped at a hover before Hain. It was a daoran.
     
    “Hello beautiful.”
     
    “I warned you never to come back here,” Kayla replied in a threatening tone, as her grey eyes flared their full focus on him.
     
    “I know, and I did promise, but this is important.”
     
    “What do you want?” The light of the Soph Aur that did reach into the Chasm made a bright and almost blinding reflection of light off of her scales. It slowly became a dark storm, as the aeri energy in her was replaced with estus
