decide to go see the dragon.
Noel looks pale still as you announce to the family that you are
leaving to get help. they look at you with disbelief, then with
smugness. they think you are leaving because you cannot handle the
job. then you tell them you will get the help of the dragon Wessen.
mouths drop open and gasps fill the courtyard. this is it, they think.
the Lady had gone insane. She has finally lost her mind. you smile to
yourself. Part of you is clinging to this last hope with claws. you
know that there is no other choice. the family is being ripped apart
step by step. there is nothing you can do at home. so you must go get
help. Now you had tried to get help before, from neighbors and the
nearby town, but no one was willing to help. they themselves were
afraid of the terror that held marina tower. the only one who had been
willing was Grey, the young man whom you have known all your life. he
left everything behind months ago to help you, his closest friend. Now
he stood down there in the crowd, not looking too shocked at this. You
are somewhat surprised at that reaction, until he steps up and tells
you that he is going with you. numbly you agree.
