The series of events happened so quickly that Jace and the others couldn't react in time!
It wasn't until Jace realized that Mia was no longer beside him that he snapped out of his daze. Panic surged through him, and he tried to rush down towards the lake.
Maria grabbed his arm.
"Jace, you have to stay calm! Rushing down there won't save Mia..." Maria said, her voice trembling.
"But what can I do? Just watch helplessly?" Jace cried, his eyes red and filled with tears, his mind blank.
His worst fear had come true.
The dungeon race had specifically mentioned Mia, and they were clearly planning something!
"What should I do? What should I do?" Jace was on the verge of a breakdown!
…
Down at Moonheart Lake.
The spider creature returned to Violet with Mia in tow.
Mia was crying uncontrollably, her face streaked with tears.
