David went back to his hidden home, thinking about possibilities for the future and how it had already changed. He would still have a lot of preparations to make, but he felt more confident in their chances.
He logged back into New Eden, too.
***Back to Astaroth***
After logging back in, he and Violette waited for Phoenix to come and join them, enjoying a hearty meal at the inn. It didn't take very long, since she was already logged on and only needed to walk back to the inn.
She had been taking care of a few things on her side, making sure she had no obligations for the next few days, since she wanted to enjoy her time with Astaroth. Violette was thrilled when Phoenix told them they could play together for the next few days.
Astaroth didn't forget to mention to her they should hold back on levelling to level fifty. He wasn't happy at the idea of keeping back from harder quests or dungeons, but he had agreed with Khalor.
