Over the course of several long hours, Edumont and Raven made their way to the cave, and immediately, the mood changed.
As Raven entered the cave, she did so with a faint smile on her face and a twinkle in her eyes. Her joy appeared to spread throughout the space, bringing lively energy with it.
On the other hand, Edumont appeared determined to maintain a calm facade, his features carefully composed.
"Did this bastard wake up, princess?" She asked as she quickly sat beside her.
"No, I think we have to wake him somehow," Zareena replied.
Aizel swiftly removed the socks concealed beneath his boots. He went over to the imprisoned, cursed mage and brought the sock up to his nose.
Time passed in anticipation, a span of ten minutes that felt like an eternity, until the cursed magi's nose twitched, signaling his awakening.
