Jan, Esther, and Hund fell to the ground when Erend was gone. Their breath catches.
They were too stunned to do anything other than silence and breathe.
Their hearts beat fast. Not until a few seconds later they were able to catch their breath.
The eyes of the three adventurers opened wide and stared blankly.
"What was that?" Hund murmured.
"We," Esther paused to swallow her saliva. "Just ride a Dragon."
"Not exactly. We have been carried by a Dragon," Hund said. As if trying to correct her words.
"Yeah, you're right," Jan said. Then he sighed.
Among the three of them, Jan was the quickest to control himself. It's between the three of them. But it was actually Annette who was the quickest to escape the shock.
Unlike her three friends, Annette wore a sad face.
"What is it?" Jan asked when he saw Annette's face.
"He's just gone again," Annette said sadly.
Jan sighed. "He must have important business. He's done more than enough, after all."
