My eyes shot open.
My master was gone.
I sat up sharply and winced at the pain in my arm.
Hoheo taralna, rondero tarel.
I heard it in the back of my mind.
He was calling me. He needed me.
I stood with another wince and rushed to the front door. I looked around before making my decision.
I place my hands over my heart before melting away the glorious gift, the human life, I had been given.
I spread my winds and soared swiftly to my master.
I landed and my breath caught as I fell to my knees.
“I’m too late.”
Hannah, sat next to the lifeless body of my master.
She cane over to me a and I put my hands together, “Hannah, please. Get back our master’s soul.”
She nodded, “I will.”
“And… I have one last request.”
“Yes?”
I looked over at Alois, “Take my soul. I promised to stay with him forever. It was his wish.”
She smiled softly, “Of course.”
