Lance sat beside his father as he laid in bed. Logan and Scarlett entered the room, their faces filled with worry as they entered the room.

"Is your father going to be okay, you think?" Scarlett asked.

Lance stared at his father. "Yeah, the doctors said that a man cloaked with a wolf mask saved him. But they don't know who the man was or what his gain was for saving him? The thing I am most worried about is who attacked him?"

Scarlett looked at Eledon, he was sleeping peacefully as she turned to Logan. Logan walked up to his friend and held his hand. Wondering if his friend would wake soon.

"Lance, I want you and Scarlett to head to Groma, ask the dragon king for aid in healing Eledon. It might be something where we would have to enter his subconscious. We don't have anyone here nor our allies in Gold Heart and Evermore who can do spirit delving."

Scarlett blinked at Logan, "Spirit delving? What is that?"

Logan turned to her, "Is where you go into another body, spiritually, and find out what is going on within a person's psyche."

Lance stood up as he walked to the door, "We should leave sooner than later, if we are to save my father the rest of the way that is?"

Scarlett nodded as she followed Lance to his griffon.

Marie walked over to him, "Lance where are you going?"

Lance looked at her, "We are going to talk to the dragon king and ask for his aid in helping my father."

Marie touched his shoulder, "Be careful, I might have trained how to fight on the back of Whirlwind but you yet to master the art itself. Try not get into any unnecessary battles, you might kill your friend in the process."

Lance bowed, and thanked Marie before mounting Whirlwind, Scarlett hoped in the saddle behind Lance as he maneuvered his griffon before taking off. Marie stood waving at him as she worried about their safety.

Lance gently pulled the reins to the right as they bank to the kingdom's boarder. Scarlett looked behind herself to see the city sprawling with people worried about Eledon. She could see that none of the children were playing in the streets as they prayed for Eledons recovery.

Lance flicked the reins as Scarlett held on. Whirlwind let out a screech before picking up speed. The Kingdom was half a day flight, Lance kept watch as he flew, checking if any enemy was watching or waiting for them.

Scarlett leaned close to Lances body worried about what they might find out on who attacked Eledon.

Hours pass as Lance pulled Whirlwind in for a landing. Many dracoman ran up to great them. Lance looked around to see if his grandfather was around. Scarlett searched as well when she spotted him.

"Master Aaron!"

Aaron looked over to see them, Scarlett ran up to him as Lance put Whirlwind away.

"What are you two doing here?" Aaron asked, his face filled with concern.

Scarlett looked back at Lance before turning her attention to Aaron. "Well, its Lord Eledon? He was attack a while ago and is recovering, yet he has not awakened since the attack. We need to the king if he could aid us in this endeavor. By aiding a spirit dive."

Aaron stroked his chin. "I will see what I can do to get you two an audience with the King but be warned you might not get it. "

Scarlett thanked him before he flew off. Lance walked up to her, "So, what did my grandfather say?"

She looked at him, "He is going try and grant us an audience but don't hold your breath. It might not even happen."

Lance looked up at the sky and closed his eyes. "I hope we do, because we need to know who snuck in, why and how." Lance opened his eyes and turned to Scarlett, "I know my father will have the answers even if it might not be what we want to hear."

Scarlett nodded as she walked over ot the cliffs edge. She sat down waiting for Aaron to return as Lance talked to the locals. Scarlett had a feeling that it was the Faremin, and yet she wondered who the mysterious stranger was who saved Eledon.

Sometime pass as the sun began to set. Aaron returned and walked over to them.

"So, what did the king say?" Lance asked.

Aaron looked at him, "The king will see you, but on five to eight days. He has to be somewhere by morning and that he knows it is important. But as things stand, he has been summoned to Infera Village, regarding a masked man that is being called Black Wolf, as he has a black wolf at his side every time something is happening with the Faremin."

Lance turned to Scarlett as she stepped forward. "How so? What does this Black Wolf do when the Faremin are involved?"

Aaron sighed as he looked at the two, "He foils their plans. Either by saving someone or teleporting them from their target location. Stopping their advances." Lance's eyes widened as he listened. "Yet we have no idea where he came from just that he is fast and efficient at what he does? The man is like a ghost."

"And the wolf? Where does that play in?" Scarlett asked.

Aaron shook his head. "I do not know, we do know it is a summon since a few times it has be said it talked, meaning who ever Black Wolf is. He has high amounts of mana and might possibly be a theyan."

Lance gripped his hand tightly, "If we can find him, we might be able to gain him as an ally in this war?"

Aaron nodded, "Yes, and that what we are trying ot do, but in your situation, you would want all the kingdoms surrounding the Faremin kingdom to work together to stop this chaos."

Scarlett sighed as she shook her head, "True, I wouldn't put it past Luna to search for allies big and small in the fight. Well lets hope the king returns sooner rather than later."

Lance nodded as Aaron led them to his home for the time being.
