Aria’s head snapped up. 4 DAYS!!!! All her doubts were at once confirmed, her jaw dropped. Poor Kylan, no, there had to be some bother way. They had dragons, was there a unicorn that could magically transport them there?
Kyle could brood over why she thought it was his fault, which it wasn’t, at least, as far as he could tell it wasn’t, since that didn’t make any sense, or he could just ignore her. That he did.
“My people did nothing to the Rugæ. It was those Carimnies. But now they don’t trust any outsiders, even those from my village. We don’t wage war on anyone, we’re a stateless society. So don’t expect them to act any differently around you.” Korim shrugged. “Anyways, I’m vetoing that. Any business with the Rugæ is going to turn out badly.”
Cam didn’t want to tell the valiant young Kylan, but by now she had accepted that Noah was a lost cause. That she was not going to the castle for him anymore, though she had done all that she could. She was now just doing this to get home.
Lilith glanced at him, keeping quiet.Kevin was distracted by what Korim was saying, and missed half of Lilith’s words. “Good, good,” he murmured, glancing back at Lilith.
Four days?? They won’t survive that long. We barely survived a night. How can lost children survive over four days? He wondered, but decided not to contribute to the chaos by asking more questions.
Kevin turned around. “Can you?” He asked. No matter how far she got them, it would still be better than walking. “Alright, let’s do that.” He looked around, hoping everyone would agree with their plan. And whoever didn’t would be left behind.
Lilith had silently been listening to the two's conversation, tipping her head and watching the others mindlessly. This could work. That could cut so much time out. But we'll have to be careful, or else we'll exhaust her.“I think we should split them into groups” Aria said looking around “one person who is confident like you, Lilith and Kylan per group and then everyone else needs to sort themselves out into groups”
She suddenly nodded at seemingly nothing, bringing herself into the conversation. "You've got my vote of approval."
