Bargain

Somewhere in the middle of a dense forest filled with trees that reached above tens of meters, several humanoid creatures clad in sky blue armors walked around the place, seemingly in the search of something.

"I found it!" one of the patrolling guards suddenly roared loudly, making several guards stop searching and run toward the guard who just shouted.

"Let me check it." a man in a much grander armor walked through the crowd of guards that made way for him and grabbed the token the guard was holding.

After inspecting it silently with an indifferent gaze, he hummed slightly and turned around, "My Lord, it has indeed been found."

The man extended the token in his hand toward a man clad in white armor, with the obvious sign of handing it over.

The man, whose facial expression was seemingly ice-cold and had several facial features that were scarily identical to Darla's, grabbed the token and glanced at it.
