Description Previous : Run away

It seemed like an eternity. Lithin tried his best to follow his friend, but his lungs and gills were burning him. He needed to stop, to breathe, but he couldn't. What if someone notice them ? What if Alma noticed that they were gone, and was after them ? His body was heavy, his vision was blury. He could barely see the light of the town from afar. Silver, still leading the way, didn't noticed how the Finn was, thinking that it was as easy for him than for them. Life on earth is easier when you don't have gills, huh ?

When the first houses happened in their vision, they slowed down a bit;  the buildings were hiding them anyway. But they couldn't stay here, in the dark streets, not only because they've been told again and again that it was dangerous and they'll be possibely mean Wyngrew waiting for them, but also cause since the Deelagun attack, spites were more present. They needed to go as near as possile of the Nova tree, the safest place for them. The grey Wyngling dashed trought the big houses, like they already knew the way, telling a lot about how long they've been preparing this plan. Lithin was audibely taking back his breathe, but he couldn't stop walking and take a break for the moment. It was dark and silent, the fresh wind was biting. Summer is well known for being really hot during the day, but at the night, the town who felt like it turned into Last Notch transform itself into a tundra. Are they going to survive in this place ? This question kept runing into the yellow Wyngling's head.

Finally, they arrived. The center of the town, where life was taking place everyday. It feelt really empty at night, like Wynsiph died as the sun was down and relieved when it rises back. They stoped their running to come near the Nova Tree, who got a new protection since then, preventing it to being stolen again by bandits. Lithin felt like he would faint at any moment. After a moment where he tried to calm his beating heart, he switched his look towards Silver. The grey Wyngling were standing up, proud, even if tired, looking right behind them. On their mouth was drawn a unusal smile, something Lithin never saw before.

Silver was happy. Truly happy. They finally got out from this hell. Now, they shall live a better life, by their own. 

"Silver...", Lithin asked them between two breathes. "What... What are we going to do now... ? We can not stay like this..." The Wyngling didn't moved their head or look at this sentence, fascinated by their achievement.

"Don't worry, it'll be okay." They answered. "We need to find a place to sleep, near the Nova Tree. Easy."

Lithin raied an ear at these words. How can they tell it'll be easy ? It doesn't look like a game or something funny for him. Silver finally stopped his glory moment to jump out of the shrine, followed by Lithin. It's true, they must find a place, and figure out how to live now.

A new life opened for them.
