Sandrina came over and gave Mayonette a hug. She smiled and patted her face. She then turned to Thomas and gave him a hug.
"Thank you for coming and looking for me. Let's go back home," Sandrina said softly. Mayonette nodded. Indeed it was time to go back home. She looked over at Thomas and took his hand gently, a bigger smile formed upon her face. It thrilled her to know that she wasn't going back home alone. That she would never be alone ever again.
The company jumped onto their horses and looked at one another. She had come to know these people as her friends and she knew that she would miss them all dearly. She smiled. Leoflic and Edhener were now the best of friends and seemed to be very settled in their new lives. Cordelia and Garnae were smiling like school children and holding hands. Elfride was smiling at her softly.
"You are all welcome to follow us home and get your reward that I had promised. You have all deserved the money for the time and effort that you put into saving my sister. Please know that my home is open to any of you at any time. If you need me, or Thomas, you can find us at my father's estate. Thank you. I shall miss the ones that go on adventure and I know I'll see the rest that stay here in Rohan. Come, let us go and have our celebration of life and a new beginning. The dark days are over!" Mayonette exclaimed.
She spun her horse around and they rode off together towards her estate to celebrate, talk, and just bask in the new friendship that they had found. Mayonette smiled. Yes, the dark days were over and new light ones were up ahead.
