- Dravok's POV -
Far from the parts of the world where civilization followed familiar rules, Dravok stood in a place where change itself was ordinary and the unexpected was simply part of everyday existence. It was a remote land few outsiders would ever reach, and the very place he had warned Trafalgar not to go digging into.
He had specifically warned him not to search for this place. Now, after all those warnings, Dravok had come here alone.
"What are you doing here?"
The question came from the man standing several metres ahead of him. It was simple, but Dravok found himself silent for longer than he expected, because there was no answer that could erase how many years had passed since he abandoned everything behind them.
"I needed to see you again."
Five people stood in front of him, and none appeared satisfied with his answer. Two were women and three were men, all of them carrying features that made it immediately obvious they did not belong to any ordinary race.
