The Griffin's Path

Danafor was, well, done for.

The entire kingdom was deserted, looked like it had been robbed clean of any people. And what was for certain, that meliodas and Lizzy were nowhere to be seen, from my eyes. And the only movement I could hear was my own footsteps, and the small falling debris from the taken out fire. Was there even a fire? I have no clue.

Surely, everyone is still alive, either playing some prank on tourists, or they've headed towards further shelter, and there seemed to be no other option I could guess.

The only thing I can do is stare at the mess in front of me.

-------------------

After several years of walking around endlessly, I had made time to clean up the kingdom of it's remains, and I had made it look beautiful once again, all it needed was more people to roam the streets. Although, after the incident, I'm pretty sure nobody would come back, and it's already come to my senses that everyone is beyond dead. After all the years I spent, I was so sure that the population would come running back after a few days, including Lizzy and Meli, but nobody had showed up.

I forced myself to move on, but I couldn't help but feel like Meli and Lizzy are alive, but that would've meant that Meliodas broke our promise. I knew they're really strong, so maybe they are just trying to find me? Heck, they might've thought I left the kingdom-But that wouldn't make sense, Lizzy told me to stay at the house so I was safe. 

I had to push those thoughts out of my head as I left Danafor for good, and I made my way up North to find another place to stay. As far as we knew it, I had become a traveller, entering and leaving town's as I go. I guess I had come up with the idea to look for Lizzy and Meliodas, but even when there was no trace of them, I still felt like they were out there somewhere, having fun and leaving me out.

One day I was travelling in the kingdom of Liones, the capitol of Britannia. Just in case, I always hid my wings with a spell I had learned back in Danafor. It wasn't a flashy type of spell, it was quick and painless, unless you're trying to reverse the spell. I've actually never reversed the spell, only once, but that was because I lost my patience with something. So by the evidence of my notes, as long as you try to reverse it, if your emotions become unstable, then the spell will reverse itself. But when I read the book when I was trying to learn the spell, if you also make your emotions unstable, then the spell could also become corrupted.

And I was afraid of that.

I had never experienced any spell I've used become corrupted, ever. So it would be expected of me to feel fear out of it.

Anyway, I make my way towards a tavern, which was just outside the walls of Liones. It seemed pretty packed, lots of people were in there, drinking alcohol and munching on food. And to be honest, I seemed really hungry. Not just that, but I had this weird feeling in my gut, which was currently making me feel sick when I got close to the tavern.

I entered the tavern anyway, my stomach was more important. After all, if I was in trouble in there, I'd have no trouble knocking out a few people.

Maybe few was an understatement.

There was lots of people inside, even the tables were all taken. However, my eyes glinted towards the spare seat over by the bar, which also didn't seem like such a bad place to sit. As I was about to sit there, my arm was stolen by a drunkard. 'Oh for Midna's sake...' I cursed mentally as the drunkard stood in front of me, his hand was still gripping at my arm.

"Hey there sweet pea, care to sit with me and my friends?" I grunted in his hold as he took me towards his table anyway, without my own consent. Honestly, I was just about to slap the man, but I was stopped by a small boy-he was actually a bit smaller than me. "Now, now, the pretty lady doesn't want to sit with ya, so leave her be." The boy-no... He reminded me of Meli, just a tad.
