Assumed

Hao Xuan stood rooted on the spot for several minutes before finally turning back and only because the cold started getting to him.

"Did you see that? If I hadn't buried them we wouldn't have gotten that information."

A red light blinked on the top left of his vision making Hao Xuan grumble, "You can speak now, just don't say anything stupid."

*beep*

"Which information is host referring to?"

"The hatching pits or whatever he called them. What else would I be talking about?"

"Apologies, I did not want to assume."

"Assume what? You heard the same thing I did."

"Negative."

"Negative what?"

"System only picked up the host's side of the conversation."

Hao Xuan came to an abrupt stop, "What are you talking about? You didn't see or hear Wern's soul talking to me?"

"Negative."

Hao Xuan looked over his shoulder towards the direction of the grave.

'Did that...really happen then?' he mused inwardly.
