Everyone followed Lith outside but Tyris who stood by the crib.

"I think that there's something wrong with me." Lith said once they were outside and the Hush spells kept Kamila from overhearing him.

"Even now, I can still almost hear my old rage scratching at the back of my mind. If you take a look at my life force, the blue flame is still there. I thought I was supposed to have gotten rid of it after my breakthrough!"

"Shush, child, let us see." Salaark disregarded her displeasure for Leegaain's stunt and asked his help in studying the situation.

The eyes of the two Guardians went wide for a split-second while checking Lith's life force and once they were done, they walked away to tell something inaudible between them.

"You are right, there is something wrong with both you and Elysia." Leegaain nodded, explaining to him everything the Father of All Dragons had discovered during his latest experiment.

Even the Eldritches had no idea what he was saying, but unlike the rest of the family, they could understand how dire the situation was.

"I just want to assure you that the blue flames aren't a parasite or something that can hurt you two like Chaos would." Leegaain said.

"Then what are they?" Lith asked.

"Something that can change you and affect everything else in the process." Leegaain replied. "I wish I could tell you more but this is the problem with new species. Your powers are something unique that needs studying and understanding."

"Also, consider this." Salaark stepped in, noticing how pale people were becoming. "The fact that Elysia had a breakthrough with you and that her life forces merged along with yours is a good thing.

"It means she has also overcome all your past issues and is left only with the new ones. While she's so small, she won't lose control of her abilities unless you do it first. You've seen how deep your bond is.

"Elysia learns from you so it's twice your responsibility not to stray from the right path just for power's sake."

"Easier said than done." Lith sighed.

"Listen to me well, child." Salaark cupped his face, forcing him to look her in the eyes. "You are of my blood so there's something you need to hear from me."

Lith nodded for her to continue.

"There are two Phoenixes who constantly battle inside of us. One that basks in light and helps you rise to new heights, and one that lurks in darkness and craves for blood."

"I know that." Lith rolled his eyes. "The one who is going to prevail in the end is the one I feed."

"What? That's not how the saying goes! I know it because I made it myself. Who goes around twisting my words into such bullshot?" Salaark said in outrage. "Tell me where you heard that so I can kill them all!"

"Please, Grandma, you are scaring everyone." Lith pointed at his parents and the kids.

"I mean, I was about to say that to achieve true greatness, you must learn to become them both. Never lose yourself in either of them. Always be their master, no matter how alluring their promises are.

"If you relinquish one, you also relinquish a part of yourself and whatever strength you achieve will always be incomplete. Do you understand me?"

Lith nodded and Salaark let him go.

"Now, if you'll excuse me, I have an appointment that I can't delay any longer. Leegaain!" She turned to him. "I leave you in charge but pull another fast one and no Shargein for one month."

A bright blue pillar erupted from her body as her mana core reached the next stage. At the same time, in the Trawn Woods, the tower was sitting above the mana geyser and started sucking in rocks, ground, and wood in order to rebuild itself. _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}
