Agatha (49)

The next day that dawned had been quite eventful.

Adam's knight companions were very alarmed upon learning that their leader didn't return. They tried to search for him, but their efforts were futile as their range of search was limited by their foreigner identities. Another thing that gave them headaches was Adam's carefulness which literally left no trace for them to follow.

How were they supposed to track him if there was nothing to trace?

Even if they wanted to just go on with the real purpose of their trip there, it had to be under the order of the leader. It was a rule amongst knights of Obson.

In the restaurant below the inn…

"How the hell are we going to proceed with the mission now?" Garth, one of the senior knights, grumbled in annoyance, not pleased by the current development of things.

"Shall we wait for two or three days before seeking Mr. Benedict for help? Maybe Adam will return in just a few hours?"
