Lyra stood at the edge of Ashen Grove, staring at the opening where they believed Auryn had disappeared into.
The breach entrance was still there. A bubbling viscous mess that looked like it wanted to consume whatever was thrown it's way.
Amidst all this. Their dragon bond had gone M.I.A. It wasn't like before where she could tell he was there but quite far.

He'd been steady for the whole two days, keeping the troops organized, making sure everyone stayed fed, rested and ready.
But even he was starting to show strain. His eyes were deep from lack of sleep but he still believed in his heart that whatever was in there didn't matter.
Auryn would walk out of it in one piece.

"Should we try again?"
