Elsewhere in the cave, Glacious awoke to see Ellena unconcious with blood on her foreheard. Concerned, Glacious gently grabbed Ellena and proceeded to try and find an exit. A few minutes later, Ellena woke up and saw a worried Glacious carrying her to somewhere safe. In a panic, she screamed to the top of her lungs, her dracophobia having taken affect. Glacious dropped Ellena having been spooked by the sudden screams. Ellena scurries away in a panic as Glacious gets even more worried. When she looks over her shoulder, Ellena sees Glacious laying down in an calm manner. Realizing he is not a threat, Ellena slowly approaches the Ice drake still afriad of what might happen. Glacious gently rests his head on the ground, a sign of the Ice drake not being a threat. "I guess theres no point in hiding it. Not like I even tried." Said Ellena. "In a way its rather fitting that I tell something like about where my phobia came from." Continued Ellena before telling her story.

She begins by telling how her parents were medical experts as well years before her. Despite their busy work schedule they always had time to spend with their daughter. A few years ago, the family went out on a hike. It was supposed to be a simple walk through the wilderness. "I heard a rustle coming from the nearby bush. I got curious and it turns out I was being hunted by a wyvern." Said Ellena recalling the events. "I was lucky to survive but not all of me could be saved." Ellena said as she removed her artificial tail showing where the surgeon amputated her original tail. In his mind, Glacious could empathize with Ellena since wyverns also saw him as prey when he was a young. Glacious rested his head near Ellena and began to make a chuffing sound. Luckily, she was able to tell that ice drakes chuff as a sign of non-hostility. With this newly forming trust, Ellena got onto Glacious back and the two head out to find an exit.

Elsewhere in the cave, Eren and Vera are making their way through the cave when they see a light at the end ot the tunnel. As they exit, they sheild their eyes from the light. "So where exactly are we?" Asked Vera. "Beats me. on the plus side we should be able to find the others." Replied Eren. They continued foward  and found a dirt road. Dirt road usually means civilization is nearby. Vera thinks that they'll be able to reunite with Ellena and Glacious if they followed the trail. Eren was skeptical at first(given the likelyhood of that happening is small) but knows that they don't have any other choice. As such Eren agreed with Vera and the two proceeded to follow the road. On the way, they pass a rusty sign pointing towards somewhere. Based on the language on the sign, that somewhere is very old, ancient even. The only thing written on the sign was "Elven Republic".
