from the net and used my dagger to sever its spinal cord.

“You did great,” I praised. “This will feed all of us for sure.”

“Oh, good,” Asta said, and she stood up and grabbed her bundle of herbs and the other three fish I’d caught. “We should get breakfast going.”

“You’re right,” I agreed. “I also nearly forgot I put some rice on the fire. We should get back before it burns.”

“You probably weren’t counting on me being out here distracting you,” the elf girl laughed.

“I wasn’t.” I smirked. “But I’m glad you were.”

I followed Asta’s perfect hips as they swayed back toward home, and Blar trudged along behind us, and judging by his dragging feet, he was clearly still exhausted.

The little dragon had done a lot yesterday, so I would try my best to take it easy on him today, but I was also incredibly proud of him and his efforts the day before. He’d made a lot of portals, and some of them had been quite large. His teleportation abilities were getting more powerful, and I was excited to see what more he’d be able to do once he fully mastered his ability.

Before Asta and I even broke through the trees, I could hear the sounds of the girls talking and laughing.

Once we arrived back in the courtyard, I saw Eira, Kas, and Preyna were all gathered around the fire, and the beds were no longer in sight. Someone had removed the rice from the flames, and the faint scent of it still hung in the air.

“Oh, there you two are,” Preyna said, and she turned to us with a large smile. “We were getting concerned.”

“Well, Preyna was getting concerned,” Kas chuckled.

“We were fishing for breakfast,” I said as I held up Asta’s huge catch.

“Oh, my,” Preyna gasped, and her light-brown eyes went wide as she took in the size of the large water-dwelling creature. “That’s quite the catch, Rath. You must fish often.”

“It wasn’t me,” I laughed and gestured to Asta.

“Asta!” Kas chuckled. “You caught that thing?”

“I did,” the elf girl said, and she lifted her chin up and smiled proudly.

“It looks like it could have pulled you in and swam off with you for breakfast,” Eira teased.

“Oh, no.” Asta shook her head. “It did try to get away, though. Rath had to help me.”

“That’s still quite impressive,” Kas told her.

“I also got herbs to make tea.” The elf girl held up her bundle of foliage with a smile.

“That’s wonderful,” Eira said with a playful smirk. “But it’s not quite as impressive as the fish.”

“You haven’t tried this tea yet,” Asta told her with a raised eyebrow.

“That is true,” the redhead laughed. “But now I’m expecting it to be amazing.”

“It will be,” the elf girl assured her.

I shook my head and joined the girls by the fire. Blar followed behind me, and he made his way over to where the rest of the dragons slept near the flames to lay down next to them.

“Poor little things.” Kas shook her head. “They’ve been like this since we woke up.”

“Are they usually not so tired in the morning?” Preyna asked with a frown.

“No,” Kas said. “Usually, Blar and Inger are up playing in the courtyard. Uffe joins them sometimes, but a lot of the time he sits with me while I read.”

“He is a contemplative little fellow, isn’t he?” Preyna smiled and reached down to pet the little red dragon’s brow.

Uffe let out a contented sigh, but he didn’t lift his head.

“I’ll try and take it easy on them today,” I said. “But that will depend on what we run into when we get to Alfheim.”

“Yes,” Preyna said, and her smile faded into a serious expression. “Where in the realm are we headed?”

“Asta said it’s the wealthy part of town,” Kas explained.

“Mmm, I know of it.” Preyna nodded. “The castle has dealings with elves from that part of the realm.”

“Have you ever been there?” Eira asked.

“Not personally, no,” Preyna sighed. “Though, now I wish I had gone.”

“I’m sure we can find our way around,” I said as I cut up the fish and put the pieces in a large pan.

“Of course, you’re right.” The beautiful sorceress nodded. “I’m just happy to be along for the quest today.”

“We’re happy to have you,” I told her with a smile.

Asta got to work on her tea while I cooked our breakfast. The sun had risen high, so I knew it was officially morning time, but the fish didn’t take long to cook, and soon enough, the food was ready.

I dished up servings of rice, fish, and vegetables for the dragons and set them on the ground. The little lizards all made their way over to their bowls and started to devour their breakfasts, and even Uffe and Svass ate with extra urgency this morning.

I passed out bowls to the girls as well, and after Preyna took a bite, she let out a little moan and turned to smile at me.

“They were right,” she said. “This is delicious.”

“I felt the same way the first time Rath cooked for me,” Eira laughed. “He’s far better than I expected.”

“I hope you’re only referring to my cooking,” I teased.

“Yeah, you were just as good as I’d expected otherwise,” the redhead chuckled and winked at me.

Preyna smiled at the joke, but then she looked down and ate in silence. It seemed her jealousy was a little more severe than I’d thought.

Once everyone had finished their fish and vegetables, I gave them some spiced apples and peaches to eat while they got ready.

“Do you always give out dessert after breakfast?” Preyna asked with a laugh.

“Not usually.” I smiled and looked down at where the little dragons were happily eating their
