Chapter 30 His Wife

• Oryun offered a contrite nod as he said, "Very well, then attend to your human wife Esthela and observe her actions, and leave me to my cherished bride."
• Erick turned his head to see Esthela conversing with a human who bore a resemblance to someone familiar. He advanced with steady yet unhurried steps and recognised the figure. It was Florian, the warlock from the past! What sort of macabre experience was this, and who was behind it? Indeed, he felt compelled to follow her, but why?
• He halted a few paces away from their conversation, sensing an energy within the man that took him by surprise. Weren't all copper dragons believed to be extinct? How then had he detected that specific source of energy in the human sorcerer, Florian? Could it be that the adopted princess Elgida was also present in this future time?
