Lyze woke up suddenly from his peacefull day of recovery. A strange noise was coming from the outside but his keen hearsight didn't helped to define what it was. As the sound stoped, the old ryb tried to go back in Glaucis wings but the worse just happened :

« Lyzyyyyy ! Look who's heeeeere ♥ »

His instinct was to hide in the darkest place of the hollow but it was to late. And Bubo had the gift to know when and where he could find his budy.

« Ho, what a surprise ! »

He replied with his cold tone as he knew what to expect. But this time, only Lyze would rule.

« I have some bottles here » he said with a sadistic smile

Ezylryb knew what would happen if they started their drinking session in his hollow. It was inevitable, and his work here was too important to let one big blacksmith enter. After all, Bubo was well known for his ability to destroy everything in his path after one glass or two.

"Okay then, gimme a second... lets go for some of your best beverage. Impress me !"

The old Ryb, deep inside his gizard, was sure that it wasn't a good idea. But declining something from Bubo may be even worse. Does he have the choice ?

Bubo was the kind of owl which were not that gentle with his student. Everybody among the guardians knew that : the courses given by this big eagle owl were not for the weak of heart. The toughest in the great tree were best placed to become a blacksmith.

Ezylryb, with his screech owl size, could have been crushed to death by Bubo more than once. It was for that reason he declined every proposal like drinking in the forge and such. Here, in Bubo's hollow, he was sure to be safe and sound... at least... hoped to be.

Adding some more wine into both of their glasses, Lyze said :

“Talking about students... what happened to Shawn ? She didn't come to my lessons today. I have heard that she was in the healing hollow... you have nothing to do with this, right ?”

Lyze knew it was all Bubo's fault as it was not the first time... but he had to put an end to this.
