Chapter 198: Into the Dream
The druids had prepared a lavish banquet, and the food suited Catherine's tastes quite well.
But no banquet could last forever. In the end, Brandir never found a chance to speak with Catherine, and could only watch helplessly as the goddess of his heart returned to her delicate treehouse castle.
The moment Catherine returned to her room, she eagerly took out the gift Ambrose had given her.
It was a small wooden box with a satisfying weight to it, wrapped rather carefully.
Inside the box lay an exquisite hourglass, along with a ciphered letter.
Catherine quickly retrieved the latest issue of Legendary Spellcraft from her pouch. Using it as the codebook, she began matching each character one by one, painstakingly translating the encoded letter.
The contents of the deciphered letter shocked her.
She had never expected that the artifact would contain the heroic spirit of Arthur Lyon himself. However, he was currently extremely weak and had fallen into a deep slumber.
Catherine carefully lifted the hourglass with both hands and placed it respectfully on the table. "Naomi, this is the time dragon's artifact. I'll leave it in your care. Ambrose said you should familiarize yourself with it as soon as possible. Perhaps you'll be able to sense traces of the time dragon within it to complete your transformation."
