Kai scratched his head in confusion. Improvisation masked his nervousness and the cold sweat down his back. He was happy to avoid a death duel with the wyrmling, though it peeved him to have revealed his ring for nothing.

Author's notes: What better way to celebrate 200 chapters than with an early chappy?

Cheers to 100 more chapters!
