We had come back to our room to pack some clothes and get Cassie well wrapped up for the short flight to Volsung. Going further up North, the temperature would drop dramatically, especially being up in the sky at night. I could sense Cassie’s unease about this arrangement, but she was also determined to help Aneka and her unborn bairns. This is what Cassie excelled at, helping others, healing them, protecting them. I only hoped that she succeeded, because I knew she would never forgive herself if she didn’t.
We had agreed to meet the Nordic dragons in the clearing in half an hour. Alfarin and Mila had been brought to the iron cells, but would be treated well until our return. Aiden was staying behind to protect Cassiena. Conner, Kyle, Shanna and Kerry were joining us to fly to Volsung.
