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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyANHLUDB6H
“Yer right about that Geardweli. I never meant to show min face to ye lot.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPUcHDvPBH
“Haha, and this explains the number of our siblings at Gestel plains. Why? Do you wish to open up the borders? Let them in?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCENOyMvEdR
“Exactly my intention.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zBbUVCa2R
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoEn6KlPUT
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaIZtX0W21
“Violence!? Oh ye jest—”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghyFzE7BYg
“Alongadol met death many times and always manage to win over it. But now, what happened?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmM5o9Q9wH
“He met a different kind of death. Killed him in an instant.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHg4t0nsDxr
“But his roots are intact. I checked,”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU94KGjpt92
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOXTkXa0nS
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…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARqZ6lbLXr
“Calm down Peacock, keep an open eye and let me know if ye feel something approaching.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsznva1Dtw
The bird nods and shrinks himself to perch on the lady’s shoulders.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVSpTwVdRm
“Peacock is not enemy” Olwan tells to the Nautrens
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4NmZvTnnu
“But a potential suspect” Geardwell adds, “Its children are all the same!”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNw47LVq3ZV
“Where are Hommafrið and Philomena?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ163C8FfW9h
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLtUC5Tfeq
“Then tell me where I can find them.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUcEzjUYpD
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF6YBGlqSR
“I do not plan to do anything for ye.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuN0Ys0Upf
“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—"
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeneHyk2zo
“No, I will not do.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfzd8PVFcJ
“Let me finish” gritting his teeth before grinning, “And you will be able to bring Pebe with you.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9kLzlxpKI
“Pebe…? Ye rotten lizard, ye better did not do anything to Pebe.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyU1IeS4VVQ
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbhMe4l42A
“…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ944uST2YQy
“I’ll take the silence as a yes. Follow me and I will tell along the way.” Geardwell turns and walks towards the upstairs.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSBPemgdrA
Peacock holds onto Olwan’s leg saying, “Hey, hey, you cannot leave me here. They will kill me.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CIskDZiyC
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsrH2E8gcv
“Pebe the criminal is back? Nautriarch Synwyn?” Escar questions before bowing,
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcN1OSrhWh
Synwyn only raises her hand before walking for the upstairs, leaving Escar unanswered.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRRBCDlSlr
“Hm…I must have said something to upset her much” Escar says and turns to the trio hugging each other.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiH5siABrR
“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…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZTk4lwerX
“Then we go to a moonspring” Isaac says,
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrAbzBDQss
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLESBcnv1Q
“Then, we hit a slump…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqQFvZEmQM
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr6wtktCGc
“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?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM1q0SE6Um
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UjBsSkoif
“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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwTc5WJbYs
“Ah…ahaha…ha…” Amerie rubs her cheeks, “Looks like we do not need to say anything where we should go next”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p0liIjxHm
“Right” Escar nods, “Trust me. I know how we can approach a Nautriarch.”
