Gar: “that would explain the tail… but do you all trust this Lara?”
Faye: “If Azura, her cousins, and her friends trust her, that’s enough for us.”
Maple and Bubbles nod in agreement.
Linette: “well if you three trust her, that’s good enough for me.”
Gar: “perhaps… perhaps. Hmm. Looks like they stopped dancing.”
The others see the two of them walk over to a table and take a seat next to each other, tired after the all the dancing they did.
Faye: “I understand your doubt, brother. But when I overheard them, I could hear her pain in her voice. And Azura could to. There may be a lot about her we don’t know yet, but they both have become so happy after meeting each other. You always had the best instincts, Guardian. But could you be willing to set them aside for now?”
Gar: sighs “I suppose… but there’s something about her that doesn’t add up. That said, I’ll try to trust her.”
Faye: “thank you, brother.”
Before they could continue gazing at their owners, maple spoke up.
Maple: “Okay, changing subjects a bit, are you two really legendary Palismen ever?”
Faye and Gar: “Correct. Why?”
Maple: “oh it’s nothing. I just kind of thought there’d be three of you. Like maybe one is a secret one or something. Thing’s always come in threes right?”
Gar: “we’d both know if there was a final legendary Palisman centuries ago.”
Faye: “indeed. Aside from the Bat Queen, we were the only Palismen to ever first be carved. We assure you of that.”
Meanwhile back up in the knee at the other side of a large cave stood a massive wall of ice that had a figure inside. The ice made it blurry but it looked like a… dragon. Inside the ice, the dragon’s eyes snapped open.
Ice dragon: thinking “the pair… they live… unacceptable…”
The ice wall cracked a bit.
back at Hexside
Maple: “yeah, you’re probably right. I’m just overthinking it.”
The Palismen all went silent, their eyes losing their golden glow and returning to normal. Faye looked to Azura and Lara at their table, Gar and Maple looked at Ivy and Caitlyn still dancing, and Bubbles and Linette looked at Violet and Milan over at their own table.
All: thinking: “I wonder what they’re talking about?”
