To her surprise, the tunnel opened into a gargantuan cavern with a large circular rock platform in the middle and dozens of dragons scattered all over the place: clinging to the walls, covering the floor, everywhere they could fit, all their gazes fixed on Rose and the other two dragons.

As for the cavern itself, several massive holes dotted the ceiling, allowing sunlight to filter in and confirm Rose’s impression they’d been traveling up within the mountain. The holes didn’t look naturally formed, but rather like they’d been blasted into existence. Even the walls of the cavern, on closer inspection, were covered with signs of … scorched residue.

It reminded her, in fact, of the same explosion marks decorating some of the library’s walls, and as soon as she made the connection, Tara’s own assessments infiltrated her mind.

Of course they would look similar, since both were made by high-elf during a battle. But, then…

Rose felt her heart drop, though it was entirely possible Tara’s own feelings were simply reinforcing hers. Besides the explosions, chaos magic permeated the walls of the cavern, and such an abundance of chaos magic made it easy to guess who the mysterious high-elf had fought. Though, the question remained…

Which princess had fought the Spirit here?
