My Daughters trail ends here... This is the last place that anyone saw the flying Angel Zern. My life changed the day I met her, and it's changed more every day since. I can't believe I was so cruel to my own Daughter, and now it might be too late.

"Zar... There is nothing we can do at this point. It's time that we let our contacts around Gaia get ahold of us when they're seen. It's clear they're not here anymore."

I don't have many people I can trust... Let alone call a friend... But I have one person. His name is Izzecs Lemeld, and he's been helping me in my quest to end Slavery. He's a pureblooded Elf like myself. He's the only one in the world that I'd call a friend.

I hate it, but he's right in this instance. There is nothing left to do but wait for my contacts to get ahold of me when they see them. There is another option, though.

"Well, we can try one of those magical locators of blood relatives. I heard Players used them to find their family through blood magic. I can do the same to find my Daughter."

If it worked for the Players, I don't see why it can't work for me.

~~~(Time: 1:14 PM)~~~

Cera and I have been traveling nonstop for the pass two days, trying to locate the jungle The Dark Elves reside in. It hasn't been easy traveling like this, but I'm not going to complain about it. I'm not in the mood for that.

Cera and I have been doing really well since our argument. I know that trying to manipulate Cera wasn't the right thing to do, but I don't see where I have a choice. It's a dumb thing to say or think, but I felt like it was the only option I had.

And even then, he didn't fall for it, and it makes me upset at the fact it's drawn out that part of the mad it's not what I want Cera seeing out of me.

"How long are we keeping the silence between us this thick? I like it when you talk to me, Sally, and it's something I've grown used to having. It's weird not hearing it all the time."

I've been giving Cera the cold shoulder ever since our discussion and I know that it won't do anything in the long run, but it's something that helps me channel my anger at him. Even if we're not openly arguing, I'm not giving up yet.

I'm not speaking to you for a reason, Cera. You've upset me, and I'm not going to pretend everything is alright between us when it's not. I know I can't change your mind, but that doesn't mean everything is alright now."

I'm not backing down from this, and that's because it means something to me. Cera means more to me than life itself, and I don't want him thinking he can go and die on me.

"I understand that. I was just thinking you could be civil. I love you, Sally. I want you to talk to me. But if you feel like this is what you need to do, I won't stop you."

He doesn't get it, but I know just the way to put it to make him see it my way.

"How would you feel if I did that to you?"

I want him to realize that it's not okay putting his life on the line like that. No matter the situation. It'll do way more harm than good. Even if it's not physically damaging to me, it's emotionally devastating to think about.

"I do think about it, Sally. It's not something I'm a fan of, and the reason why we don't have situations like that is that I don't allow them to happen. You'll never have to give your life for mine."

Ohhh, fuck that.

"That's the dumbest fucking thing I've ever heard from you in my entire life!!"

The arrogance of that statement boggles my mind.

~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: The Jungles of Nu'bor, The Kingdom of Nu'bor, The Continent of Alforza)~~~

~~~(Time: 6:34 PM)~~~

I've set up camp, and Sally is in the tent avoiding a talk with me. And I don't blame her. She yelled at me some more, and this is the first time in my life that I feel like this. It's hard to describe, but it's not a feeling that I ever thought I'd have.

The campfire is warm at least, which is nice. But I'm enjoying it alone tonight. Normally, we'd be considering sex about now since it's been a few days since the last time we've done it. But I doubt I'll be getting any tonight.

Sally is convinced that passive-aggressive punishment is the way to go, which may work for some people, but not me.

"Don't even think about coming in here. You're kicked out of the tent."

That almost sounds like a challenge. But that's just a figure of speech. Sally has made it clear, but I'm going to push it cause that's what we both need.

"Oh, yeah? And what's going to stop me? You?"

I poke my head into the tent as I talk, and I can see it's having the desired effect of making her upset, and that's perfect. She slams her foot into my face, but it has no effect on me.

"I mean it, Cera."

Yeah, and I mean it too. Just because we're in a rough patch doesn't mean I get kicked out of a comfortable tent. That's not how things work.

"And I mean it too, I'm sleeping in the tent. I'm not sleeping outside of the shelter. And it's cruel of you to assume you can make me."

She grits her teeth and goes in for another kick.

~~~(Location: Coastline)

~~~(Time: 5:10 AM)~~~

It's been a couple of days since we went back to the nearest city and picked up the magical locator, and now we're back here. It's where the trail has led us, and now it's going across The Sea of... Whoever you call it... I'm not a history guy.

But now Izzecs and I know where Sally's at, and she's on the Continent of Alforza. And that's across this ocean.

"The trip will be multiple days... Maybe even weeks... And we'll need a crew and ship... Taking an Airship is possible, but that would mean giving up our identities..."

We're highly wanted men when it comes to international travel. Making enemies of Slavers across Gaia will do that to you, and we don't want anyone picking up the scent of us. Especially my Daughter. I don't want her to know that I'm coming.

"Then let's smuggle ourselves into Alfroza."

That's the next best thing. We'll stowaway on a ship, and we'll get in under the radar. The problem is we won't speak any of their dialects, and that'll cause us issues too.

But I know there are solutions to those problems in Alforza, and it won't take us long. What we need to worry about is the deserts on the other side. Reaching a port city is the easy part. The hard part is crossing the massive deserts to find Sally.

"Alright, looks like we've got a plan. The nearest port city is up the coast, and it'll have everything we need for Alforza."

Izzecs is helping me with all this, and I couldn't be more grateful for the man.

"Let's get a move on. It's still early, and we could reach it by breakfast if we move at full speed."

I'm in a rush, but I have every intention of finding my Daughter and getting a second chance. I need it.
