Chapter 557: Entrustment
The sun shined down on the scarlet leaves of Vulture Woods, casting the grass in a warm shade of red. A cool breeze ran over the gurgling sound of the river. The titan of the moon, Lunae, sat on a giant boulder next to the river bed. Her arms were splayed to the sides, supporting her weight as she leaned back, head tilted up, eyes closed, her chest rising in quiet slow breaths.
A blue goblin no older than 10 sat on her lap, he was small for his age, but next to her stature, he seemed like a newborn. He held a fishing rod between his tiny clawed fingers as he waited, patiently—
“AURAAGGGH!” Stryg threw his arms up into the air in frustration. “I can’t catch anything! These fish are cursed!”
“Mm,” Lunae grunted.
“We’ve been at this since dawn! Why can’t I catch a stupid fish!?”
“Mm.”
“What should I do?”
“Mm.”
“Lunae?”
