Sheila's POV

"Hey Ceris," Rain said, his voice filled with respect.

"Hello Dragon Tamer," Ceris said, nodding.

"Uh, what brings you here?" I asked.

"Hey! Respect the End Matriarch!" Rain said.

"Calm down," Moon said. "Before we end up killing each other."

"How have we not killed each other yet?" Stella asked.

"One of the world's biggest mysteries," Alex said. "Especially for me and Sheila."

"Haha," I said. "Very funny."

"But still, why are you here?" I asked. "Aren't you supposed to be ruling the End?"

"I'm not slacking off," she said. "If that's what you mean."

"That's not what I mean," I replied. "I'm just surprised that you're here."

"Well, I just want to talk to Stella," Ceris said. 

"Why her?" I asked.

"They're related," Rain answered.

"Oh, that's nice," I said.

"Shouldn't Rain come to?" Stella asked. "He's the Last Ender Watcher after all." 

 Ceris shook her head. "I only want to talk to you," she said.

"Alright," Stella said. "See you guys in a bit, okay?"

"Bye," I said. "It was nice knowing you."

"Sheila!" Alex said, slugging me as Stella gave me a terrified look. 

As the two of them left for their discussion, Rain sighed. "We don't get much interaction with Ceris anymore," he said. "Not since Zeg's death. I wonder what she wants with Stella, and why not include me in it?"

The four of us exchanged confused looks. None of us knew.

But we were about to find out.
