"Ripha learned how stubborn Solus is the hard way." Baba Yaga sighed.
"She would tell the whole Mogar what the Tree has done to her and how to defeat them, even if it costs Elphyn her life." Silverwing ignored the remark.

"I don't even know why you bothered coming here. You could have told me everything via the amulet and my reaction would have been the same."

Despite having a bright white mana core just like the Red Mother, the First Magus lowered her gaze and obeyed.
