"Come on, guys. This is too a good day to spend it holed up home." Salaark walked into the tower, forcing everyone to follow her outside. "I moved my capitol here just for you."
The Heavenly Plume city had relocated near one of the mountain ranges of the Desert. It cast shadows that were a rarity and that along with the presence of a huge lake lowered the temperature.
On top of that, trees and glades grew all around the lake, giving the Verhens a small taste of home. The kids weren't convinced, but the magical beasts were drawn by the foreign smells and the fresh water.
Aran and Leria would never let their furred friends go alone so they quickly followed them. Before they knew it, they were playing in the water and building sand castles with magic.
"Kids." Salaark said with a warm smile on her face as the sight of their smiles and the sound of their innocent laughter lightened the mood of the adults. "They are so weak and yet so strong."
