The crisis was averted, and an alliance was forged.
The purpose of this trip to Storm Cape had been successfully achieved.
Raylo glanced at the sky and bid farewell to the Flowing Wind Giant Dragon.
"I should be getting back. There are many matters awaiting my attention in my territory."
"Go, my friend."

Kado and the other Giants were already waiting there.
"We're going home."
Raylo ordered.
