Book 5: Chapter 134
Ramon hummed to himself while walking down the palace hall. There was a pink-eyed goat laying on his head. Do you think Glorias feeling better yet? the holy dragon asked, his eyes rolling up to look at Kozabokget.
Trauma heals differently for different people, Kozabokget said. Although your grandma purged all the humans who had attacked her, itll still be difficult for Gloria to get over the issue unless she confronts it herself.
You mean Grandma Kondra shouldve let Gloria get rid of all the humans? Ramon asked. His brow furrowed as he made his way to Glorias room. Gloria had raised a good point before; Kozabokget was a sealed evil. Were the goats conclusions common sense for normal people or common sense for evil people? Ramon scratched his chin. It did seem like Gloria would get over her newfound dislike of humans if she had gotten revenge for herself instead of letting Grandma Kondra do it.
Thats not what I mean, Kozabokget said. If an accident happens in the air, and you crash while flying, you might be afraid of flying for a while. Getting rid of whatever you crashed into wont make flying less scary for you. Its the knowledge that you might get into an accident whenever you fly thats the anxiety-inducing part.
Koza, Ramon said and frowned. For such a small goat, you sure do have a lot of words in your body, like, a lot of words, and theyre big too.
The pink-eyed goat fell silent as her head tilted to the side. What did body-size have to do with vocabulary? Youll learn a lot of words in the future too. The more words you know, the more commands you can give things to do. Though, convincing things to work for you requires more than just knowing words. You have to describe what you want in a concise manner, or you might be misunderstood.
I think you misunderstood me just now, Ramon said and blinked. He didnt elaborate; instead, he raised his front leg and knocked on the wall in front of him. Gloria? Are you in there?
A muffled voice came from the other side of the wall. Go away, Ramon!
I brought you some grapes.
Kozabokget stood up and peered over the side of Ramons head. The holy dragons paws were empty. But you dont have any grapes.
You dont have any either, Ramon said and rolled his eyes.
Isnt that perfect? Lets do it, Ramon said.
Kozabokget shook her head repeatedly. Its abuses of power like this that got me thrown into the evil-sealing tower. If I let you do this, your grandma will seal me away again. Besides, if Tafel is somewhere the wind cant reach, she wont hear the message.
We can still try it, Ramon said. Its not like itll hurt anyone. He raised his head. Hey, Mr. Wind? Can you call Tafel for me?
Kozabokget placed her hoof on her forehead, covering one of her eyes with her leg. She sighed. Thats not nearly specific enough of a command.
There was a slight crackling sound, and a purple portal expanded by Ramons side. The holy dragons eyes lit up. See? It worked!
Tafel raised an eyebrow at the holy dragons expression as she walked out of the portal with Vur and the Recordkeeper following behind her.
What worked? Vur asked.
I asked the wind to call Tafel, and now shes here, Ramon said and nodded. He stared at Tafel and took a step towards her. I need you to speed up Gloria. Shes injured right now, and only time can heal her.
Tafel furrowed her brow. Only healed by time? she asked. For some reason, she found it hard to believe Gloria could be injured with Leila, Kondra, and Kondras mate living here. What kind of injury does she have?
Ramon shrugged before knocking on the wall with his leg. Gloria, open up! Tafels here to cure you.
Glorias muffled voice came from the other side. Go away!
