Two days after their return to the Emerald Kingdom, Mana, Raven and King Jaren had a pleasant (and somewhat expected) surprise.
To be exact, it was King Jaren who got the surprise first.
"Grandpapa! Wake up! Azar wants to eat mushroom soup and roast chicken!" came a young voice, and King Jaren's bed shook as if there was an earthquake.
"Grandpapa! Wake up! Alya is hungry, too!" came another sweet voice, and the bed shook once more.
King Jaren opened his bleary eyes and realised that the 'earthquake' was caused by his two dragon grandbabies bouncing around on his bed.
The two dragon babies were not so little any more – and even with their ability to control their sizes, it seemed that they couldn't shrink any more than this. Both of them were almost two feet big right now, and their scales gleamed beautifully, full of magic.
Azar's green eyes glowed like emeralds in the sunlight, and he showed his pearly teeth to his favourite human adult.
