Devarius saw Paedyn’s signal on the southern side of the city. It wasn’t hard to miss. Paedyn wasn’t exactly a surreptitious kind of guy. Flames burned in the air on the southern side reading, “Boo.”

Shaking his head, Devarius strode over to the hidden entrance. He brushed hay aside to reveal a small tunnel, large enough for men and women to climb through, but too small for a wyvern or dragon. It was meant to be an escape route, but they hadn’t forseen this many coming to attack at once. They would only die in the cold of the mountains in the winter if everyone left through it.

He stood over the hole. Over four inches of ice blocked it from entry. Devarius motioned over a fire wyvern. The creature nodded at Devarius, then blazed fire onto the ice. It was thick enough to take several long minutes before it completely melted. Paedyn would need to do the same thing outside the city.

After several long minutes, people started climbing into the city. Devarius stood at the entrance to help everyone up. Once everyone was safe, and they made a few checks to make sure no one was left behind, Devarius had Ayla breathe ice back over the entrance, securing it.

Devarius hugged his sister. “I’m glad you made it back safe.”

“We lost a few,” she admitted.

Devarius raised a brow. “You were attacked?”

“A small party of a hundred warriors attacked us on the eastern side. We defeated them, but we lost a few. Shortly after, your friend, Paedyn, found us and brought us to the southern side.”

Devarius glanced at Paedyn. “Good.”

“There, we fought against three dragonriders. But we defeated them as well.”

“Dragonriders attacked on the eastern side?”

He turned to Paedyn. “You did make sure to cover the entrance well?”

“Of course. I even melted a gigantic rock on top of it,” Paedyn responded.

“Good. Did you lose anyone to the dragons?”

Paedyn shook his head. “No, but your sister stole my wyvern.”

“What?” Devarius asked.

“Borrowed,” Zaviana said.

Paedyn rolled his eyes. “Borrow implies asking.”

“I did ask, you were just unconscious.”

“Do I need to put you two in time-out?” Devarius asked.

Zaviana smiled.

Paedyn frowned.

Devarius laughed. “Come on, we need to prepare the defenses. If we live through this attack, we can sort out the semantics.”

They turned to watch all the crates being brought into an empty forge. The men were careful when they carried them, sweat beading along their faces, even with the cold.

“Do those crates weigh that much?” Zaviana asked.

Devarius shook his head. “They’re just nervous. If one of the vials breaks … well, it won’t be good for any of us.”

“What do you plan on doing with them?” Zaviana asked.

Devarius shrugged. “I haven’t had time to experiment with them.”

“I make them go boom,” Paedyn said.

Zaviana rolled her eyes. “I saw what you did with them. There has to be more practical ways to use them.”

“All I know is it seemed important enough to save the oil. I am unsure what all we can do with it. The only way we’ve used it is throwing them at a target.
