Chapter 18 The Answers

• The elf's eyes fluttered open, revealing only fear as he looked through the dimly lit room. His breaths were shallow, each one a struggle. He looked like he was haunted by whatever he was thinking about. Sheila and Luca exchanged a glance, looking at each other concerned. They had been waiting for the elf to wake, hoping that the elf would provide the answers they desperately needed.
• “How do you feel?”, Genesis, Sheila's most trusted disciplie who was also in the room asked. The elf didn't speak for a while only staring at the top of the ceiling. He opened his mouth then closed it back, like he was trying to speak but he couldn't.
• “Genesis,get him water.” Lucy ordered. Genesis moved fast to the side of the room and poured water from a jug into a smaller cup for the elf. She moved close to the elf helping him up before feeding him the water. The elf drank it slowly before moving away from the cup and shutting his eyes.
