“It’s getting worse,” I relay back to the winged creature above.

“ Must be getting close. ”

“Must be,” I mumble back to myself. I hear chipping laughter in my head and cut Solen off. The bastard isn’t the one experiencing bond pain s.

With a light tap to Mage’s side, I spur him into a gallop.

I will find the source of my bond pain, and they will swiftly meet the end of my sword.
