Leiko, covered in snow and ice, slid off the mammoth's back, landing on his feet. He looked back at the collapsed crevice, the gaping hole a stark reminder of the near-disaster.
Lunara landed beside him, her wings folded neatly behind her back. "That was… intense," she said, her voice slightly breathless.

Lunara smiled, a hint of playful competitiveness in her eyes. "Don't get used to it, Prince. I still intend to win."
