Each exhale of breath turned into fog as she took further steps into the familiar streets. Ruby hurried over towards the tiny house, her eyes caught the lit up diner across the street. Phoebe was sweeping the gravel path to her diner when she saw Ruby coming over.
"Thank you. I should've come back faster, I couldn't find any Sky Dragon around at Qye. This will never happen again," Ruby took out a pouch filled with silver and shoved it into Phoebe's hand.
The elder was surprised to find the pouch and was about to push it back to her when Ruby immediately walked away while waving her hands.
