Ephis broke into raucous laughter. He had a hand over his stomach while doubled over in mirth.
I looked at my companions. Bane had recovered, but they watched on the side, letting me deal with Ephis.
I was grateful that they didn't interfere. We needed information and proof that Bronn was alive.
With the thought of finally meeting the man I used to look up to as a boy, I turned to Ysabel. Bronn was the man who saved her.
But he was also the man who used her the most. Was it love?
Ysabel caught my gaze. We stared at each other for long before she offered me an encouraging smile.
I shifted my focus to the monster before me.
Ephis was done expressing his glee; the expression on his face was quite a sight.
"For providing this much entertainment, I commend you and will let you meet Diva."
Snapping his fingers, the dragon-man had the ground shaking. He closed his eyes and had his hands open, palms down.
