"Azu…do you really have to leave?" Felia asked with watery eyes as she grabbed the ends of his sleeves. She was elated to see him return with her Allmother but was saddened to learn he was leaving right away without even staying for a day.
Not only her but the rest of the fairies and pixies had all gathered around after learning that their savior was going back to his home even though he had just returned.
They knew the Spirit Guardian had answered their prayers, but their Allmother also told them how much pain and hardship Viktor went through to save them all and their home.
This was why they felt immense gratitude towards him even though he wasn't the one who returned their fruit.
It was the fact that he tried so hard that mattered to them the most and made them all feel moved.
