XXVI: Bait Part I

I went back to what remained of my party to give them the talk they needed to hear, so I could also pick their brains for ideas to solve the current problem.

The men were thorough and found an isolated place where we could talk with relative ease…and better yet; they found food.

Free, fresh, and delicious food.

Thankfully, they saved something for us. And so, I gave them a summarized version of what was truly occurring while Kumiko and I enjoyed our meals. I did not want to divulge many details, even if Selene didn’t censor me this time around; I had finally learned to be cautious with my words.
