The white dragon sighed as she moved through the palace. She knew that her time was limited now. She did not want to leave the others behind, but she knew she had to if her family was to survive. At the moment, her mind was heavily shielded from Gem in particular. She did not want to leave the young elf, but she knew that she would.
Her mind pondered what was going to happen soon, and she knew that as soon as Hybur and Xanotter returned, she would fall. She too caught glimpses of the future, and she knew that the trouble from Drian was far from over. He would cause her own son and his rider to kill her, and she knew that it would not truthfully be their doing.
With a sigh, she moved out to one of the courtyards, her mind made up. “Gem? Auraka? Rasjar?” she called.
