"Lumen? What are you doing here?" Aella got up from the ground when she saw her friend walking into the garden.
The Witch was dressed in a black frock with a high neckline and loose lace sleeves. A black hat covered half of her face and Aella could tell she looked sad.
"What is that thing?" Lumen asked as she stared at Derake who was now on his four feet. "Is that a Drogo? From the legends?"
"You guessed right. This is Derake, Bane's pet." Aella introduced as Lumen stepped closely, mesmerized by the creature.
She placed her hand on his head and Derake hoofed which made her step back a little, startled by his movement.
"Ohh, okay. Sorry about that." Lumen laughed nervously. "What is he doing here? Or more importantly, how did he find you here?"
"According to him, he was sent here by Rohare to help us save Bane." Aella said.
"Rohare?" Lumen perked up at the mention of his name. "Is he-is he here?"
