Hoshi and the girl he had saved entered the large city, behind the mountain.

As Hoshi had read at the gate the city's name was Flareth, nicknamed "The City of Flames".

Based on what he saw at the top of the mountain Flareth was at least double the size of Celestis, the city he had landed near to.

Hoshi had been badly wounded in the battle against the Ice Dragon - Aicre and now was stumbling and bleeding through the city, clinging on to the beautiful, blond, girl beside him.

That girl was the reason Hoshi had fought the dragon. He had seen the tribes' members pulling her in and so went to rescue her. But Hoshi regretted nothing.

The girl had somewhat healed him, but Hoshi was still weak and bleeding.

After a while of stumbling around, Hoshi and the girl entered some kind of Inn.

"Room for two, quick!" the girl said upon entering the Inn.

You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.

"Oh, that will be fifty copper pieces, please." the man at the front desk responded.

The girl searched her pockets and threw five copper coins on the table.

"Your room is the first one on the right." the man responded as he handed the girl the keys.

"Thank you," she said as she grabbed the keys and carefully rushed over to the room.

As soon as they entered, the girl went up to the bed and Hoshi lied down on it.

By the time they were in the Inn, the sun had already set.

Hoshi then fell asleep from pure exhaustion.

The blonde girl then began chanting some sort of spell as her hands began to glow.

She was healing Hoshi, but slowly.

She continued healing him for an hour straight, but the damage done to Hoshi was far too great.

The girl was tired but did not want to stop. She felt like that would be a betrayal to Hoshi, her savior.

She continued to heal him until she too fell asleep due to exhaustion and slept by the bed.

She was out of energy and could not heal Hoshi, if she wanted to, which she did.

The girl had done all she could.
