THE YOUNG DRAGON PRINCE SET FIRE to the Wyvern on the night after he slay the beast. His pale eyes glowed a rich silver as streams of current poured in beams on the dead creature. The twin bolts fell from his eyes, fierce as lightning and blazed the monster to ashes.
Hemlock had intially feared the Prince's lightning eyes would consume more than just the Wyvern but Esabel and Ferra stood with Marsil, grabbing hold of his hands as the ashes floated away with night wind.
Their grip on Marsil brought him back to normal. His silver eyes dimmed from their brilliant light, the twin beams receded and the wisps of darkness sank back into his skin. Afterwards, Marsil had offered silent gratitude to the young women.
Obviously, it was their light that kept the darkness from consuming him.
