"Those... weren't for you to see," I muttered, still trying to regain my balance.
The Elder Wyvern approached me, his long neck straightening as his violet eyes glared into my soul.
"Why? Because you need to run away from your past at all costs?" he asked, his low growls freezing me in place.
I was unable to respond to his question. I had always believed I had found closure to my life on Earth by defeating One, but I knew the Elder was right. Constantly running away was all I seemed to be able to do, and maybe seeking the power of the gods was also a way of escaping. What from, I couldn't answer, though.
"Tell me, boy, what is it you desire?"
I looked up with a slightly surprised expression. Was this some kind of fortune-telling experience now or something?
"To save my family," I responded after giving it some thought, but the Elder wasn't satisfied with my answer.
