Pin Drop Silence (Ch.153)

"Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!" A pained scream echoed down the halls of the second level, completely overturning the usually quiet atmosphere.

The entire keep had fallen to pin drop silence, not a sound could be heard from all levels as dragons, riders and keep residents alike remained within their quarters, awaiting word from the second level.

At a time like this, no one could be seen moving about the keep, the dragon guards were on extra alert as three perimeters of protection surrounded the keep and every route leading up to the second level was tightly guarded.

At noon of this day, news had spread through the keep that the rider of Lord Imagor of argentine scales had begun the travails of birth.

This was a critical childbirth, the fate of Lady Kaliana could not be determined, the dragons and the royal healers had done all they could, Lady Kaliana's fate was now left to the Creator.

"Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!"
