"How long will she be out for?" Alex calmly inquired as he picked up Ana in a princess carry.
She was quite light for a dragon.
"I can't be certain. The Vow was tied to her very existence. To destroy it even with my permission would leave significant scars on her. It will be a while before she awakens."
"And if I could heal those scars?"
"Then perhaps in a day or two."
Alex nodded in satisfaction. "That's alright."
Then, he added, "Thank you."
"Hardly would a man be willing to utter those words to another man if put through the same thing I put you through."
"It doesn't matter. You helped my cause and if all I need to pay is a beat down, then that's fine by me."
Aiden nodded as he took note of Alex's words.
"In any case, your information about the Fountain was quite useful." Alex calmly added. "I'd found myself at a bit of a crossroads as to what Branch to go after next."
