[The battle with Sombron was fierce. His Corrupted truly did give them a challenge, not to mention the man himself. But through it all Alear stood tall and rallied her soldiers behind her, and Griss was admittedly paying a bit more attention to her than the battle.
She really is radiant. It's no wonder all of these princes and princesses decided to join her.
With Sombron's death - at Alear's hand - they're left to patch up the injured and settle a bit in the Somniel. Griss's own very minor injuries have already been taken care of, and Zephia has decided to retire for the night. That leaves him wanting to talk to Alear... but everyone wants her attention tonight. Better to wait until she's had a moment to herself.
Griss doesn't join the others in their celebration of victory; instead, he's out toward the edge of the Somniel qatching the slowly-lightening sky. It'll be dawn soon, and with it comes the start of a new era.
But that's not something Griss cares about. Instead, he has Alear's gift in hand, turning it over like he's considering opening it... but he hasn't done it quite yet. Like before, he's still very careful with it. Regardless of what's inside, it's already very precious to him.]
