Able to Fulfill (Ch.684)

"Did you just say...a dragon of black scales? Like me?" Xenon asked, his tone was barely above a whisper, there was an obvious undertone of doubt and a hint of caution accompanied it.

'How much truth could these dark forces be capable of?' Xenon did wonder, it was not a thought that Xenon could ignore, 

Impulsive as he may have been, Xenon knew the time for caution. He had exercised it to the best of his ability, refusing to acknowledge the voices up until now and this was because he knew, that there was no place in the stronghold more dangerous than this tower he currently occupied.

And it was not the tower itself that was dangerous, but the dark arts it had represented for the longest time and the threat such arts posed not only in combat, but to the mind of its victims also.
