On his way back, Ethan didn't hurry back to the dungeon but made a detour to the treant village.
The captured Heroes he had brought back were being held there.
Eluna spotted Ethan at the entrance of the village.
She didn't approach him but merely nodded from a distance.
She was surrounded by many treant children and NPC villagers, no doubt to maintain her dignity in front of them for better control over the village.
Ethan understood Eluna's small tactic and smiled, nodding back, and proceeded to Eluna's room.
Not much later, Eluna came back.
Today, she wore a green ceremonial robe, looking extraordinarily beautiful.
It seemed to be some treant festival today, and Eluna had a touch of the sacred, inviolable aura that stirred Ethan's desires.
Ethan circled his arms around her waist and whispered in her ear, "Missed me?"
"Mmm," Eluna nodded, uncharacteristically shy.
