Chapter 74: A New Journey

My announcement is received with minimal fanfare.

Leriva and Mathilda had all come to terms with the fact that they'd die on this soil. 

I'm the only one late to the realization. Late to push the clouds away from my eyes and take off my rose-coloured glasses.

Leriva looks up at us, not at all bothered by the thought of it, perhaps even relieved. Yes, her face, her shoulders and her arms lost a tenseness that had been there since the beginning.

But, that begs the question…

"How are you going to do that? Nothing alive goes in remember?"

I bite my lips at Kaylin's question breathing life into the insecurity of my claim. How would I go about killing them?

Well, to begin with there're many ways immediately available to me. I could find a corpse and toss it down the hole primed to explode in a shower of tender meats and bones.
