After ensuring that Selveriah is fully healed, we decide to summon Veronica. Since Leviathans and dragons are somewhat closely related, we figure they might get along.
However, when Veronica arrives at the top of the tower, stepping through the transportation magic circle, it becomes immediately clear that their bond goes much deeper than that.
"Huh? A black… dragon?" Selveriah mutters, her voice trembling as she sees Veronica.
Veronica's reaction is no less intense. She freezes, her eyes widening in disbelief.
"What…? A Leviathan?" she murmurs, her normally strong and intimidating voice now laced with something I've never heard before—shock and vulnerability.
Then, it happens.
"V-Veronica? Is that really you?" Selveriah whispers, her voice breaking.
"Wait a minute…" Veronica stares at her for a moment longer, and then, "AUNT SELVY!???" she gasps, her expression transforming from disbelief to overwhelming joy.
