The next morning, everyone woke up refreshed. They had a good night's sleep; there were no interruptions, and everyone remained warm.
Gildaryn had already woken up and was waiting for them. He asked, seeing their relaxed faces.
"Had a good sleep?"
"Best in a while," Faris answered, raising his arms and yawning.
After they finished their morning routines, they had breakfast. During the morning meal, they all introduced themselves to the dragon and told him about their different powers. The dragon was very intrigued, especially by Aiko's power and wondered about the origin. The portal opening was unique, only a handful of people possessed it.
After finishing eating, they were ready to head out.
"We appreciate everything you did for us, Gildaryn, except fighting my mate," Cassandra said jokingly, putting a small smile on Gildaryn's face, the best a dragon could come closer to smiling.
