Male reader x the dragon prince

Chapter 6: the winter lodge

A/n: hello guys here's the next chapter of this story now I've been looking at the comments from the last chapter and it looks pretty even between the startouch elves and sunfire elves so I weighed the two to see which one will have good story so I came to the conclusion the reader will be half sunfire elf and his mother will be Janai's sister Khessa the reader will have perks of the sunfire elves but lack the physical traits also the primal source will be the sun so when the reader is in the sun he will feel more energies the edge of the sword will heat up like the sun forged weapons do now with that let the chapter begin

in the forest where we see Rayla, Y/n, Callum, Ezren and Bait resting in a clearing after leaving the castle as the boys were laying on the ground asleep while Rayla was sitting on a rock looking at the white bandage around her wrist as she tries poking a tugging it to try to loosen it up getting frustrated she tries biting it off but fails to do so

Rayla: unbind yourself! *nothing happens* unbind... thyself unbind! *sighs*

she then looks at the guys who are still sleeping but looks closer to see Bait still awake looking at her with a judgmental look

Rayla: don't judge me so what I'm talking to my ribbon-thing? how is that any worse than talking to a... whatever it is you are?

as Bait color changes to a light purple the two started to give each other looks then Bait breaks it by licking part of his face making Rayla slightly disgusted so she turns away then a sound of a bell echoes from a distance as Rayla looks up to see the castle which made her have a saddened expression on her face knowing what happened last during the attack the scene changes to the castle bridge with Virion along with other people carrying a casket with flowers around on top of the casket making their way through the town with the towns people with sad expressions on their faces while others hade the same expression but with their heads down 

Woman: *whispers* a funeral so soon is madness it is tradition to mourn fallen Kings for seven sunsets you've not even given him one

Virion: *whispers* I understand your concern Opeli but in a time of war we must move forward

as they moved through the town they reach a valley with large statutes possibly of other kings that have died long ago as they keep walking Soren yawns 

Claudia: *low tone* hey keep your head up

Soren: *low tone* ugh sorry *grunts* long night

Claudia: *opens a bottle* drink this *pours some in the cap as a make shift cup* I call it "hot brown morning potion"

Soren: *takes the cup looks at it and give it a little sniff thenvdrinks it* wow! that's good!

he then drinks some more of it as the they reach the edge of the valley with a view of large body of water with some land in the distance along with an alter as they got near it the towns people followed and mumbled quietly as the four people who carried the casketset it down as the woman named Opeli walks up to it with a torch in hand as the four soldiers step a way from the casket then Virion steps up in front of the alter and turns to the towns people

Virion: today we woke to a devastating truth. our king has been taken from us slain by the forces by the forces of Xadia, vile Moonshadow elves.

this caused some of the towns people to gasp as the some of the children cling on to their parents or guardians

Virion: to me he was more than a king in his final hours, Harrow called me.... his brother

Opheli: wait... where are the princes? they need to be here
