A Golden Dragon Sister
Editor: Henyee Translations
Elizabeth opened the box again. She waved her hand, and a large frost barrier appeared around her.
Only frost dragons could do this. They were stronger within their barrier, and nobody outside could sense their magic wave.
After she made sure Fox could never catch her magic wave, Elizabeth picked up the ring.
Between what her father had just said and Fox's strange behavior, she could tell her uncle didn't really care if his brother was alive or dead. He expected to find something in the ring, Elizabeth thought.
Elizabeth waved the ring, and then a letter and two palm-sized boxes came out—one golden, one silver—and also a strip of paper, with some black scribble on it. "Put on a disappointed face if you're not alone, and say there's nothing inside."
That was why she had lied to her uncle. When she told him the ring was empty, she had glimpsed the icy blue light around his fingers disappearing.
