After the villagers inspected the dragon's corpse to confirm it was real, Arad used his last drop of strength to absorb it back into his stomach. He then passed out, going limp on Aella's back.
"Let's go to the village. You have room to rest in, right?" Aella glared at the woman.
The woman growled, "Fine, let's move," she growled. Standing up, "Bring that one as well," she said, pointing at Jack.
The woman and her men guided Arad's party to the village. On their way, one of the men disclosed that the woman Arad smacked was the former chieftain's daughter. Her father is getting old, so she's taking over his job.
"He can't come?" Aella asked.
"Yeah, the former chieftain is barely able to walk. We're in the middle of a powershift." The man replied.
"So her father is still the chieftain," Aella looked at the men.
