"Hold on for a bit more!"
The archer strained a little, bearing their weight as he darted through the abyss, his flight swift and effortless. Illuminated by the paper lantern, the three of them traveled through the darkness like a small comet, moving faster and faster.
The wind whistled in Sunny's ears.
He remained silent for a bit, dumbfounded, then asked:
"Wait… was it you who brought Saint Tyris here?"
Kai smiled, looking somewhere far away.
"Of course! When you and Cassie didn't return to the real world, we knew that the negotiation with the representatives of clan Valor must have failed. But when you didn't arrive at Shipwreck Island by November, as the plan had been, it was clear that something went wrong. So, Effie and I waited for a bit, then went to the White Feather clan for help."
He paused for a moment, and then added:
"Eventually, we decided to come to the Night Temple ourselves. That was a week ago. We have just arrived yesterday."
'But the Citadel was sealed…'
