Natha's outstretched arm as he tried to catch me struck the barrier first.
"What?" his eyes widened, and he pounded the invisible barrier with his fist. "Vale--"
Khieeeeeek!
A loud screeching sound filled the air, and we were shaded by a looming shadow. Before Natha could look up, the wyvern legs had already slammed to the ground behind me. Hard and threatening.
SLAM!
The force of the rough landing pushed the astonished guards back, and Natha looked at me with widened eyes; stunned and frozen. Did he start to question everything now? Would it be enough to snap him out of the King's influence?
I sure hope so. Otherwise, what was the point of me bleeding our hearts?
[Papa!]
