Chapter 2136 Revealing Light (Part 2)
"Fear is like all the good medicine. Too much becomes poison." Tyris was talking to Aran and Leria yet everyone felt like she was talking to them.
The group took a long stroll, basking in the light and the warmth of the Guardian. Raaz steered Elina toward the cultivated fields, remembering with her the hard work behind every bountiful harvest and the joy from their property expanding through the years.
Filia and Frey dragged Tyris near the woods, where they had last seen their loyal steeds. They took their time mourning them and thanking them for their sacrifice.
"Is this Volgun's and Brionac's resting place?" Frey asked Lith amid sobs.
"No, I buried them in the woods after returning them to their families." He replied.
"Can you show us where? We never got the opportunity to say them goodbye." Filia said, feeling awful for having waited for so long.
"Sure." Lith nodded and Tyris let go of their hands, always remaining at the center of the group.
Only after they were far away enough did Tezka join them.
"I'm not going to lie, kid. I was afraid the whole time that she'd end me, interrogate me, or both." He said while pushing his head under the kids' hands to reassure them with his presence.
"Unlikely." Lith replied. "Usually, it's you protecting the children but here they protect you."
"The irony of life." The Suneater sighed.
Meanwhile, Kamila and Zinya walked arm in arm, moving towards Selia's house.
"Well, now that you're done with your training to become the mom of the year do you have a few minutes for your sister?" ƒrēewebnovel.com
"I'm sorry Zin. It's just that I don't seem to have a single moment of respite." Even though the baby provided Kamila with an apparently endless energy, she felt mentally exhausted.
"By the way, have you started to think about how to call your child? I'm certain that with so many important relatives and friends, there will be a lot of quarreling even for the initial of the third name."
"It's kind of hard to do that without knowing their gender." Kamila sighed.
"Wait, you still don't know?" Zinya was flabbergasted.
"Wait, you do?" Kamila was shocked.
"Of course. Elina called to give me the good news the moment Salaark told her. What the heck are you waiting for?"
"Honestly, I don't know. Maybe I'm just afraid that once I know it, things would get real and I'd be too scared to have a normal life. Gods, it seems yesterday that my greatest worry was not letting my personal life interfere with my career and now I'm becoming a mom." Kamila shook her head in worry.
"Well, at least you can see and are surrounded by people who would die for you." Zinya patted her shoulder. "It was much scarier for me."
"Oh gods, I'm so sorry Zin. How did you do it?"
"Mostly luck." She replied as her eyes veiled with fear and tears. "I envy you so much that sometimes I almost hate you, Kami. I spent my pregnancies terrified at the idea that Fallmug would beat me and kill the baby.
