Chapter 449: Letter
Calypso was the first to act. Of course she was. With a delighted laugh, she grabbed one of the offered limbs and let herself be hoisted into the air. "This is ingenious, Darling!!!" she called out, spinning with genuine joy as the Nightclaw carried her down the passageway. Her laughter echoed through the cavern, rich and carefree.
The sight stirred something competitive in the others.
Luna’s eyes narrowed. "This red chick basically knelt and sucked Kai off and then welcomed herself into the family. It doesn’t sit well with me if we keep letting her steal the show." She grabbed a Nightclaw’s limb. The creature took flight immediately, wobbling at first before stabilizing.
Nyx watched her go, muttering, "I bet the gamer girl in her is giggling beneath the surface..." before grabbing her own.

Their master told them that these were the most important beings in his life; losing them was simply not acceptable.
And just like this, wind rushed through the girls’ hair, the beasts shrieked triumphantly, and Kaiden, hovering in front of them with his signature smirk, looked like a king leading his army of monsters and lovers through the abyss.
Calypso’s laughter rang across the dark. It was a rich, melodic laugh that seemed to echo through the cavern... until it didn’t. She froze mid-chuckle, head snapping toward the treeline.
"Wait, darling?! What have you done to the abyss?!"
Her eyes darted across the landscape that should have been an endless abyssal landscape, but instead...
It was green.
