That's strange, I thought, ignoring the fight now. I could have sworn I heard someone. I moved into the bushes and found the tracks. Someone had been here but why and why did they leave without saying anything. I glanced back at the women, who were still fighting, and saw Cordell's neck was bare. Oh no. This fight has to end, and I have no other choice then.
I walked towards and pulled Bonita off Cordell and pushed her away for a moment, she began to return until I had a sword at her throat, as well as at the throat of Cordell.
"I don't understand all of why you were fighting," I said in a low, even tone. "But this needs to end. So you can stop fighting like this and hate each other, in which case I'll give both of you a weapon and you can fight to the death, or you can stop fighting and be friends or at least act like it until we find the key. Your choice."
I sheathed my weapons, saddled my horse and began to follow the tracks. It took a few hours to reach the city and I knew this was bad. Anyone could have seen the value in the medallion and would likely try to sell it. I have to find the seller and kill them or buy it.
Two people were just entering the city. I wonder if they took it.
(Leaving whether they followed me up to them Dee :P)

ReplyDeletesorry, I deleted that part...Bartholomew's platoon would be days behind them at best.
ReplyDeleteyes the official squodrin but i thought the monks of pease and madness were culling the survivers so that the word wouldn't get out. they dont wont the war to start too soon otherwise the two main evils wont eradicate eachother.
ReplyDeletethats why the Tamitha got seperated from her family and thats also why she was way out there in the forest not starving. this alows us to be a lot closer to the city and Westport then might have previously.
The plot grows thick like jello!
