Chapter 24

Dre’Kariston’s eyes popped open, and his vision was filled with his brother’s concerned face. Dra’Kaedan was so close that his breath was hitting his nose, and it wasn’t a pleasant smell. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Chander and Alaric kissing. He released the Arch Lich’s hand and addressed his hovering sibling.

“For Fate’s sake, what the hell did you eat?”

One blond brow lifted; then his twin straightened. “I was hungry. Noir made me some garlic bread.”

“I was gone for twenty minutes,” Dre’Kariston replied as he rose to a sitting position.

“I’m sure you think you have a point. Did you see Mom and Dad?”

With a smile, Dre’Kariston nodded as tears threatened. It was becoming a common occurrence for him in the last twenty-four hours. “Yeah. They said they love you and Brogan.” He turned to Renny. “They didn’t know about you. When they gave us their magic, they lost the ability to scry.”

“That sucks,” Dra’Kaedan said. “Was it wonderful to talk to them?”

“Absolutely. It was like walking into a time machine. They look just as I remember them, I don’t know why I expected them to be any different, but I did. Isn’t that weird? They weren’t mad I went dark.”

“Of course they weren’t mad. Are they and the coven going to help us find Drystan and Conley’s dragons?” Dra’Kaedan responded.

“Funny you should ask,” Chander commented. “We saw their dragons before we ran into T’Eirick and Saura. The beasts tracked them down after they left the coven.”

“They left the coven? You actually saw the dragons? How awesome is that?” Dra’Kaedan enthused.

“Without magic, they didn’t feel like they could continue to rule them. Uncle Dagan and Aunt Zarya are ruling them,” Dre’Kariston answered.

Scheredin’s green eyes widened. “My parents are ruling the dead Coven of Warlocks?”

“Yep. And your sister’s still alive. Mom says she’s cloaking her magic.”

“Wow,” Scheredin whispered. “I don’t know what to say. I was convinced she was gone.”

“It may take us a thousand years, but we’ll find her,” Dra’Kaedan vowed, then returned his attention to the shadow walkers. “What about the dragons?”

“Conley’s dragon is so gold,” Chander said. “And Drystan’s is probably the flattest black I’ve ever seen. They were given extraordinary beasts.”

“Did they have any ideas about how to reunite them with the Reverent Knights?” Dra’Kaedan asked.

Renny lifted a hand. “Wait. Wouldn’t T’Eirick and Saura’s familiars have been the obvious choice to take over the Coven?”

“Their magic is tied to Mom and Dad’s souls. Wouldn’t they have lost theirs as well? I’m not sure how that works. Were their familiars with them? I don’t remember seeing them when I was on the other side of the veil, now that I think about it,” Dra’Kaedan replied.

“Eldwyn and Briallen weren’t there. I didn’t even think to ask where their familiars were. I’m sorry, Renny. I should’ve asked them. But it’s okay, we’ll have the opportunity. Mom and Dad think the best way to give Drystan and Conley their dragons is to build a spell that will pull them over the veil as we resurrect them,” Dre’Kariston said.
