"Between all our agic users one of us should be able to stop you falling somehow," Barkeley said as he jumped on the dragon's back, Muroe getting on behind him.<br/><br/>"Return to Shadow Glade," Imrik said to the soldiers. "Tell my mother we will bring news from Stormrider as soon as we can." The soldiers nodded, launching off into the sky one by one. "We're ready to go when you are," he said to Kara.<br/><br/>"Hold on tight," Kara said as she launched into the air with one strong push off the ground, Imrik and Tea following her into the air, she flew upwards until they were above the clouds before flying south. "I'm sorry," she said to those on her back. "Dragons are required to protect the route to Dragonblight. I may not have lived there for centuries but I still feel a loyalty to my own kin."<br/><br/>"I can understand that," Muroe said with a smile. "You have nothing to apologise for."
