"Halt!" A guard shouted. Lee Seng and Keng stopped as the Merfolk guard swam over to meet them. "State your business!" Lee Seng looked past the guards. He could tell the place was afflicted by something. Keng cleared his throat and stepped forward.

"Did Leader Calis ever return?" Keng asked. "We've just returned last night and came as soon as we could." The guard's eyes narrowed. 

"He's returned, but he didn't mention anything about you two showing up." The guard answered. "Did something happen? Did you betray him?"

"Betray?" Keng scoffed. "We didn't do anything. He's the one who's actin' weird." The guard tightened their grip and stepped forward.

"What do you mean by that, Fox?" The guard asked defensively. Lee Seng turned his attention to the group and stepped in front of Keng, drawing the attention of the guard.
