The Dugons

Angor followed the same path as before to get back so that he could move at full speed without worrying about obstacles. It didn't take long for them to reach the landing spot of the trench where Angor came from.

He couldn't tell the condition of the water current while he was in his soul form, so he could only rely on Keely to alert him.

"The water is fine now but…" Keely checked on Luna; it was still shivering in her arms. "Luna's not right. The monster probably hasn't given up yet."

Angor immediately began moving farther. The trench would grow narrower ahead of them, which meant the octopus couldn't keep up.

Using Keely's light to see the way, Angor kept flying for about an hour. The width of the path was smaller than a hundred meters now while the flat ground was replaced by a slope that led upward, which meant the end of the trench was near.

"We should be safe now. There's no way that monster will get inside. And Luna told me we've lost it."
