This was the first time in history that Wyvern Peak was allowing women to participate in the selection. Thus, just as Adrian said, the female candidates were the highlights of the event.

"Can I tag along, Adrian?" Joanna asked eagerly.

Adrian nodded. "Sure. I'll have someone come and drive you all to Wyvern Peak when it’s time. It'll be a good chance for you guys to see what the place looks like too."

"It's a promise then. Remember to ask someone to pick us up, okay?"

Adrian smiled.

Swallowston was still brightly lit despite it being nighttime. Rue took Nova to her room to get some sleep, while Gloria and Gracia headed back to their own room. The siblings had a lot to talk about, after all.

Rue took Nova because it had been a very long time since Samantha had seen Adrian. As a woman, she knew how much they must have missed each other, and Samantha must have had a lot of things she wanted to tell her husband.

The room was filled with warmth with the moonlight shining in.
