Golden (Ch.507)

 Neveah was at a loss on what to say, and there was hardly any time left to contemplate or dissuaded.

How could she dissuade him? King Jian was Dragon King, he was duty bound to protect his people even if his life was required of him.

Beyond his duty, Neveah had always known how deeply King Jian cherished his people. So how could she prevent him from doing exactly what he lived for?

King Jian's words were brief, but held so much weight, such genuine hope and so much promise that Neveah was not certain what to do with her mind and the mess of thoughts it had become.

And so, when a dozen questions ran through her mind, Neveah could only put one into words.

"Will you...get hurt?" Neveah finally asked, realizing the answer to that question was most important to her at this moment.
