“We should not have stayed the night,” Kade said as he pulled his boots on, the room growing brighter as the sun rose.

“It was that drink the spiders made out of the fruit. It had to be their version of ale,” Darcienna said as she winced at the bright light coming through the window.

“Just stop talking so loud,” Kade said as he held his head.

“This is going to be a fun day,” Darcienna said with sarcasm.

“Let’s try to deal with it the best we can,” Kade said as he slowly got to his feet.

He walked to the door and turned, waiting for Darcienna to get out of bed. He was trying to be patient, but his head ached terribly, and he was not in the mood for any more delays. Darcienna glanced at him, and even though he had not said a word, the tight lipped expression told her of his irritation. She sighed as she rose from the bed. Unlike Kade, her patience was infinite. She smiled sweetly at him and wrapped her hand around his arm to lead him out. He melted inside and even felt a bit of a fool for his rudeness.

The king and queen met Kade outside as they prepared to see them off. Rayden was calm as he lay by the tree, waiting for his passengers. Kade turned to the royal couple and felt a warm spot grow in his heart. The pounding in his head eased a bit. Spiders or not, these two had souls that even the Divine would be honored to have.

“Thank you for your hospitality,” Kade said as held his hand up to block the light from the sun. He squinted, barely able to see at all.

“We will celebrate in your honor for a week, Chosen,” Rakna said.

The wind was blowing gently and the queen’s fur floated on the wind. Kade watched the way her foot-long hair shifted in the breeze, making it appear as though she were swimming through the air. The king’s silky, jet black fur mimicked hers. They were the only spiders to have this majestic fur. The rest of the clutch had hair that was short, course and bristly. The royal couple did indeed look amazing as they stood side by side.

“This day every year will forevermore be deemed a celebration day in your honor for ending our life long feud. You must come back often, friend and second in line to the throne,” the king said with such pride that Kade forgot his pounding head and smiled widely.

“Again, I am honored. I will never be able to find the words to convey the joy my heart feels. Thank you. We must be on our way. I fear we may have lost time that was not ours to lose,” Kade said as he turned to Darcienna.

“We shall keep you no longer,” Rakna said.

Kade readied himself to mount the dragon when he caught a movement out of the corner of his eye. He looked up into the massive tree and saw hundreds of eyes looking back at him.
