"What?" Zymere asked, unsure of whether he had heard the luna queen well. She was giving him a chance at freedom, a chance to get out of the manhole, and all he had to do was make a wish. It was a risky wish, but Zymere also knew that Hera was a woman of her words.
Being the queen had taught her to keep her word, otherwise, she could probably trigger diplomatic wars and situations that they couldn't even begin to think of getting out of.
Zymere took a second look at the luna queen, waiting for her to rescind her statement. But Hera didn't. Instead, she just stood there staring at him, silently reminding him that she didn't have the pleasure of standing at the dungeon gates for long.
There were two people she needed to reconcile and if she didn't do that soon enough, there was a chance that Alexei would be thrown into chaos again, and Hera couldn't have that, not this time, and not at this point in time.
