The 7 of them walked along the path, Charon’s arms around Richard and Matt as they acted as crutches to help him threw.
Charon: “the town should be just up ahead”
Nick: “why did that rock have to move so sloooooow I’m tired!!”
Charon: “I’m old and weak stop pestering me!”
Philip: “so when we get to the village do we take up residence in an inn or…”
Charon: “it’s a very small village it’s half a day’s walk from the village to the castle. We’ll find a nice family to take us in and spend the night, then tomorrow I’ll have you walk to the city, and I’ll return to the island”
Ryan: “were sleeping on the street aren’t we?”
Charon: “no promises”
Matt: “dude next time you got to do something monkly fast, your heavy”
Richard: “I see it”
Nick: “YAY TOWN!!!”
Nick ran off ahead, Philip yelled at him but he wouldn’t stop, eventually Philip went after him Kyle and Ryan stayed behind. It was a little village, houses made of wood and had straw to cover there roof. The town did not appear to be wealthy, but the children playing in the streets showed that they led a pleasant life. Everyone arrived in the town, Charon looked around, then waddled over to a man who looked to be in his late 30s.
Charon: “why do children play in the streets? Do you not fear the demons?”
Man: “the demons have not attacked us for over two weeks”
Charon: “two weeks? Why have they stopped?”
Man: “word is that they all have vanished clean without a trace.”
Charon: “this must be a joke. What do you mean?”
Man: “one day they all vanished, teams from Alakor were sent to search but found nothing. The king has told his guards to remain on duty. But not another attack has been seen.”
Charon: “does your village have a seer?”
Man: “there is one who is said to have the sight, but she is too young. Her mouth says things that cannot come to pass. We don’t know if it is a gift or if she is fighting off a possession.”
Charon: “can you point me in her direction?”
The man pointed and Charon gave his thanks the Kyle, Nick, and Matt walked with Charon, Philip, Richard, and Ryan went to look for a place they could stay at for the night. On arrival at the house where the man pointed at. The door was locked and no one was answering. Philip walked back and shook his head suggesting he had failed to find a place to sleep overnight. Richard and Ryan returned as well. Ryan had found a place with 2 free rooms, each only having one single bed. A lady came out of the house next to where they were.
Lady: “are you looking for Sarah?”
Charon: “yes, where can we find her?”
Lady: “the king said that he would pay for anyone with information on what was happening, so they took Sarah into town to see if she could see anything for them.”
Charon: “you have been a lot of help, thank you.”
Lady: “my pleasure”
the lady winked at Matt and then went inside her house. Matt smiled and looked around the group getting cold looks from all. Charon began wobbling towards the inn Ryan had found, Kyle and Nick quickly ran next to him and helped him walk.
Charon: “we can fit four people on two beds. That means me and three of you, the other three aren’t sleeping tonight, your going to go to the castle and find out what is happening.”
Richard: “it’s not smart to split up none of us know where we are or how to live in a place like this.”
Charon: “it’s simple, go to the castle gate, and tell the guards at the gate you were trained under the Burning Mage Charon, then find your way threw the town to the castle. Tell the castle guards you are friends of the Trilogy; say Harold has important news for the king that must be told to him privately.”
Philip: “sounds easy enough…”
Ryan: “can’t it wait till tomorrow?”
Charon: “something big is going to happen and when it does I would rather have three of you in the castle on the guard knowing what’s happening!”
Philip: “fine I’ll go”
Richard: “I’m going.”
Kyle: “ok I’ll go”
Nick: “awwwwwwww”
Charon: “if you don’t mind, Nick go instead of Philip, he isn’t much use.”
Philip: “I’m right here!!”
Charon: “take half the money and get going. There isn’t any time to waste.”
The 4 left in the small village took up residence at the inn. On the way out a little girl walked up to Richard and gave him a yellow flower. Then blushed and ran away. They walked towards the castle. Something was up, and though they didn’t know what was going on, they were sure that they would find out.
