The group went back to the familiar hall after coming out of the underground room.
"I hope you both have experienced something good that might help you in the future," Fridola said, looking toward Aizel and Seraphine.
Both of them nodded in response.
"Now, we should go back to the castle, or I might get into trouble," Ashlyn said.
"Wait, why don't you drop them back and come back here? I need to spend some more time with you," Fridola said, quickly holding her hand and looking at her like a puppy.
"Umm.... Fine. Let me drop them safely back to the castle hall first."
"Okay,"
Ashlyn made a portal with a quick move that took everyone from Fridola's house back to the castle.
Having made certain that everyone had safely returned to the castle hall, Ashlyn stepped back through the portal, her destination set once again for Fridola's mansion.
"Where did you guys go?" I was looking for you everywhere."
