"Grain!" Liana yelled as she ran towards him. "I missed you so much!"
Before Liana could get to Grain, Violet sped in front of her, jumping at her Master and landing in his arms.
His face stayed the same, though his voice had a sound of excitement.
"I missed you both as well," Grain said. "I'm sorry I was gone so long."
'It wasn't that long,' Violet said telepathically. 'Master was trapped in the rock much longer than that."
Grain smiled warmly and pet his Soulbound companion.
He felt a pain in his chest when he thought back to the isolation chamber.
The pair spent a few more minutes catching up, until Violet suddenly became alert, telling Grain she had to leave right away. Turns out, Violet had become the leader of quite a large pack of beasts.
Scar had been introduced to the pack as well, becoming a high-ranking member in her own right.
This meant only Liana was left in the room with him.
