Olwan did not want to help Peacock but now she is. Pushing against a Nautriarch with the same draconic scaled hands before grunting and fully sending the Nautriarch back and against his tail. “There” She pants, turning to Peacock, “Consider this even for the ride ye gave.”

“Synwyn…” Grunts the oversized of lizard and a lantern fish, “I didn’t think you’d come back.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNKjm0Efqk
“Yer right about that Geardweli. I never meant to show min face to ye lot.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26Cq6T8k2P
“Haha, and this explains the number of our siblings at Gestel plains. Why? Do you wish to open up the borders? Let them in?”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFgL1lSm6g
“Exactly my intention.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWY9DfW4L1
“Ah…and let the undead stench our Módbeorg? I assume you did not expect these events. At all. But, even so, you are still hiding something. Tell me what you want and then I’ll let you go.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8l7Q1BXlP4
“After ye tried to kill my friend? No, there is no more room for talk especially when all I see in yer eyes is violence.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡberhxfgQGn
“Violence!? Oh ye jest—”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPHvYRrnrX
“Alongadol met death many times and always manage to win over it. But now, what happened?”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35wyfVRxtQ
“He met a different kind of death. Killed him in an instant.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvFki4erVD
“But his roots are intact. I checked,”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbhPr85Agt
“And it still wrung him dry of oxygen. Hence, it is a different kind of death, that we do not know of. All probably because of that bird you are protecting. He is afterall a spawn of that beast.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjxhXkrP2Y
Peacock frantically looks around at the Nautrens all staring at him. Keeping himself close to Olwan and praying, “Dear gods, please come already--Isaac, Amerie…”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYLlMAigvp
“Calm down Peacock, keep an open eye and let me know if ye feel something approaching.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd9uhm8mQr
The bird nods and shrinks himself to perch on the lady’s shoulders.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88Isy80anq
“Peacock is not enemy” Olwan tells to the Nautrens
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANpsiSWoCs
“But a potential suspect” Geardwell adds, “Its children are all the same!”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleJECCw0MM
“Where are Hommafrið and Philomena?”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOVjUiUrLf
“Now looking for them? You know, when you left. Both wanted to look for you and forgot their duties to take care of Alongadol. And when our Alongadol died, they confessed for being guilty and wish to atone for their sins! Hah! So that leaves me, to take care of everything. So irresponsible.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ252ljXcIiS
“Then tell me where I can find them.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuy40FPfzC
“Please, you don’t have to.” Geardwell leans his ear to the whispering Nautren before nodding and saying,, “You know…you want to let the outsider siblings in right? To escape from all the chaos those two legged ants are making.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ewayDXWpj
“I do not plan to do anything for ye.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjoE8Fwdby
“I know, but you will have to do this because my hands are already full for Alongadol. Take this chance as a way to repent yourself and I will allow our outsider siblings in. This will also undoubtedly reduce Módbeorg’s risk of being overrun by the undead and ye—"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG3O9GpRmc
“No, I will not do.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPBfNFic7M
“Let me finish” gritting his teeth before grinning, “And you will be able to bring Pebe with you.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e8dzuMkUX
“Pebe…? Ye rotten lizard, ye better did not do anything to Pebe.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4U1ibdtgT
“Hah! Childish, of course I’ll do something to him later but something came up and I just wish for an exchange with you now since you are the most Hemrean among us in this Communal den.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvKwIM4Aqf
“…”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQyRdQoL8z
“I’ll take the silence as a yes. Follow me and I will tell along the way.” Geardwell turns and walks towards the upstairs.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zTjoVxC3t
Peacock holds onto Olwan’s leg saying, “Hey, hey, you cannot leave me here. They will kill me.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnsznXymLq
“Yer friends are here” she says as the giantess and Isaac walk up to them together with Escar. “As long as ye three stick together. Ye’ll be fine.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoK9bp1X5XP
“Pebe the criminal is back? Nautriarch Synwyn?” Escar questions before bowing,
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBNA8hgVoF
Synwyn only raises her hand before walking for the upstairs, leaving Escar unanswered.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7umwgRLFL5
“Hm…I must have said something to upset her much” Escar says and turns to the trio hugging each other.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktBXggWNQj
“What now?” Peacock gathers Amerie and Isaac’s ears. “If we want to speak with the Nautriarchs, ye will have to find Nautriarch Philomena and Nautriarch Hommafrið. But both are, yes, atoning for their guilt at the moonsprings…”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9vozf4gsQ
“Then we go to a moonspring” Isaac says,
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6JifafFlA
“Going to a moonspring, I hear?” Escar joins in, shocking the trio’s huddling, “Friends, no one can tell, as any pond or spring hit by the moonlight can be considered a moonspring. But some glow with the presence of Lunarids. And they are always on the move and Lunarids only show up at twilight unless one is adept at Spirit Calling.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpHmmaJcEO
“Then, we hit a slump…”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5yPesY3Tj
“No,” Amerie shakes her head, “We must persevere and try with Geardwell, and Synwy too, we didn’t know Olwan was a Nautriarch, maybe she can help us.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mSPGRAtxe
“I am sorry to pry for this but…” Escar says, “I thought ye only wanted to ask for forgiveness to Alongadol. It is also a way for ye to show respect. Unless, ye also have other agendas?”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCMtrzYLfH
“We thank you for escorting us thus far Escar,” Amerie ignores the question, raising Escar’s brow. “I’m sure you still have other duties to do.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUH3veZjJy9
“No” Escar says, “In Módbeorg, there is always a rule that any non-Nautren should be accompanied by a Nautrient at best. Trust me, I will not let ye roam freely and we can focus on what should be done for ourselves and our kind. Also, directly asking a question to Nautriarch Geardwell calls for an on the spot public execution. I would not want the three characters of the prophecy end like that.”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1mjQ9GEIf
“Ah…ahaha…ha…” Amerie rubs her cheeks, “Looks like we do not need to say anything where we should go next”
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtuJA82MHk
“Right” Escar nods, “Trust me. I know how we can approach a Nautriarch.”
