Serene's POV
After spending two days with me Zeph decided to go home. I didn't want to act selfishly by stopping him any further. These were desperate times and everyone deserved to be with their families.
We stood by the portal and he had his arms wrapped around me as he whispered: "I will come to meet you again, I promise."
"I know, I will wait, and if you ever need my help. You know where to reach me." I handed him an emerald stone, I had an identical one myself. Kilamin had gotten these for me. They were communication stones. They glowed when touched with the intention of calling someone.
Once he would touch it with intention of calling me, mine would instantly begin to glow, informing me he needed my help. I had given him an extra one for Ralph.
"Thank you and just stay safe, don't go overboard and run behind monsters." He instructed me in a serious tone, his smile evaporating and his lips forming a straight line.
