Chapter 98: Back To The Palace

Just as Leeora approached Ember, someone happened to come to her side at the same time, accompanied with the loud flapping of the wings. Ember smiled as she recognized the one who arrived. As his majestic grey wings folded into his back and became a feathery cape, his lips donned their trademark lopsided smirk. 

Morpheus noticed Ember was wearing a fancy dress, a far cry from the simple cotton dresses elves prefer that made up her wardrobe. 

"Hey, little female. You are looking good in your new dress."

"Thank you," she replied shyly. 

"Morph, what brought you here today?" Leeora asked. 

"I happened to be flying above when I saw the tree spirits acting weird so I came down to check." He continued to look at the surrounding trees which were still restless. "Did something happen to scare them?"

"Seems like it but we're still looking into the cause," Leeora replied, hiding her guess for now.
