Bery rode on Valerie's back. The dragon puffed steam from her snout, and she flapped her large wings. The two of them flew through the sky, heading towards the north once more. Only, this time they would not stop in the granchin's territory.
Several hours after Yuri showed her invention, a courier had arrived at the castle gate. A letter was delivered, addressed to Valericae. It was a letter with only a few words.
Come see me in my domain.
And even though there was no name of the sender, Valerie assured Bery that she knew who it was.
The dragoness puffed. "I have no intention of hurrying there, but I suppose this is a good chance to see you in more outfits."
"What about the others we're leaving behind?"
"They'll be fine. I've left instruction on how to deal with any affairs, and Yuri already has the capability to take over the territory."
"I am worried about them."
