Kera getting to the doorstep of old Zuna, knock at the door and immediately the doors were opened and he was welcomed in. the room of old Zuna was cool and calm, the atmosphere was filled with nice Smell as she burned incense and candles.

"My name is Kara and I am a friend of Alita, I seek your help in making the prince of Oz who is now a dragon, to turn into an human being once more, as he used to be". said Kera with his head bowed.
