Lumberling let out a low breath. 'With this Seed, I have more ways to grow stronger… but in the end, I still need to kill enemies. I really am a devourer.' A small chuckle escaped his lips.
'Time to sleep. I'll train again tomorrow.'
He closed his eyes, ready to drift off, when he suddenly felt a presence.
A roll of thunder echoed outside. The air shifted, and a figure appeared near his window.
Lumberling opened his eyes. A beautiful woman stood there, dressed in blue, a thin veil covering her face. Her emerald eyes glowed softly as they rested on him.
He didn't feel fear. Instead, he smiled.
"Is there something you need, my dear?"
She remained silent, simply looking at him, as calm and unreadable as ever.
"Vaenyra?" he said as he sat up on the bed.
She began to walk toward him, slow and quiet, one step at a time. When she reached him, she stopped, standing close, still saying nothing.
