59 Zahra and Grok

Zahra's bright golden eyes remained fixed on the black-haired young man standing before her, as if silently assessing him, trying to see through the person responsible for such great changes throughout Stahl. The people hailed him as their new savior, the Fire of the North, sent by the Founder to protect them from hunger and the hidden dangers of the Frozen Forest. Zahra shared this same feeling of reverence for the man who had provided to her family enough food and firewood to ward off hunger and to survive through the harsh winter.
