The reluctant to let Artemis fly all by himself ate Aurora alive. She blamed herself for letting him go when he was in that situation. Leoric was practically teasing him, or worse what if he sets Artemis into a trap. Could he be expecting that Artemis will fly on his dragon to the Mines?
Well the answer was no, neither Leoric nor Aeryn expected to see Artemis on a dragon. The Mines went on chaos as Artodo roamed the skies in clear daylight, it took Artemis only two hours to fly from Blackmount to the Mines. Along the way farmers and fishermen grew weary of what they saw on their skies yet no one knew who was riding the dragon.
But the people of the Mines and the slaves alike were aware of who was riding the dragon when Artodo landed in front of Lord Leoric's castle and Artemis climbed down from him looking like a powerful conqueror. His spot had already arrived earlier that day, his Lord Commander brought the King's crown with him.
