“What does that mean?” she asked Kheal.
“This part of the valley needs to be walked by someone who mirrors a bit of your destiny.”
“And what is that?”
“I do not know. I have had many companions in the past, but never had I walked in and they were placed together with me. So, I must have been right in choosing you.” Kheal said with a shrug.
“And why did you pick me?” Helen asked curiously.
“Because you look like me; I have always picked companions who looked like just like me, so that they can retend to be me in the capital, if we get to the capital.” she said and Helen frowned.
“And where are they now?” she asked and Kheal looked away.
“There is no way you would keep them alive if your mission fails. How then will you be sure that they will not expose your identity?” Helen smiled coldly.
“You sneer at my actions? I do what I must do to survive. I have a fate I must make sure to fulfil or die.” Kheal said coldly.
