“The fever is gone now.”

“If it hadn’t gone down after all that sleep, it wouldn’t be a fever—it’d be fire.”

“I’ll send you some medicinal herbs.”

“Understood. Then it’s best to seal away that precious power and only use it when we find the key.”

“How?”

“Overprotective. Hopelessly devoted. An over-the-top romantic.”

“Not bad.”
