"Let's fly North first!" Says Konan as we mount our dragons. "It's the only place we know of that a dragon has been held captive before!" "What I don't understand is that if everyone except the King's knight is accounted for, how could someone get my mother away from the palace so quickly?" "We have to assume that there is more than one person behind this, they could have had help from the outside. Nobody would be stupid enough to take on the Queen alone." "Like the Nobles' families?" "Most probably." Vlad lifts into the air graciously and I watch with admiration before telling Serephina to follow. We fly side by side but Konan and his dragon lead the way. There's only a few hours of daylight left and I'm praying that our search is fruitful. It won't be so easy to search in the dark,
