Chapter 204
"The Avatar requests me specifically?" I say, somewhat startled and Beta John chuckles.
"He believes we will need a Child of the Moon Goddess, and their enhanced senses, to recover it and he doesn’t really trust us. So we suggested you." John explains.
"Well, in that case, I really shouldn’t refuse. Where do we need to go to find this supposed relic?"
The green robed Dragon opens up a map of a continent I don’t recognize and points to a mountain range. "According to our information it should have been moved to this location about six hundred years ago. Whether it’s still there is uncertain, we believe only a Lycan or werewolf can enter the cave itself. If the relic is no longer there we will gather evidence and move along to the next possible location."
She sets a big stack of research notes on the table and Amanda sighs. "It’s no fair, nobody invites me to come along on random adventures. Why do I anyways have to wait behind like a princess in a castle?"
"Technically you are a princess in a castle. But I heard a rumor Alpha Reisleing thought you were pretty, so maybe one day you’ll get to play capture the flag with us." Beta John winks at her and she blushes.
Alpha Reisleing was a strapping young Lycan in his late teenage years, oldest son of one of the Alphas present for the feast after the game. The Nephilim King doesn’t look at all happy at the prospect of his daughter being courted by a Lycan Alpha and I can see him considering marriage alliances already.
"He had better be quick or his lovely bride to be might be taken." Paula laughs, looking at her father in law.
They’d make a cute couple. They’re about the same apparent age, plus Amanda is short for a Nephilim, putting them nearly matched in height.
