It was only when the Time Slayer drew closer to the remains of the Serpent King that they were able to appreciate the enormous size of the ancient skeleton. Each vertebra was large enough to dwarf the ancient ship, and its skull was like a cavernous harbor.
Daeron of the Nightmare had been enormous in his bestial form… but he had not been nearly as colossal as the real Serpent King seemed to have been just before his death.
Sunny stared at the ancient bones, feeling a powerful mixture of reverence and wistfulness. He had found many traces of Daeron over the years, both in the Dream Realm and in the Nightmare. And maybe because Sunny had met and spoken with his daughter, Wind Flower, it almost felt like he and the Serpent King knew each other. There had been their battle, as well.
So, seeing the final resting place of the ancient Supreme — the only Supreme of the Twilight Sea — he could not help but feel a pang of sorrow.
'So this was where your nightmare ended.'
