Magic wands

In front of Itziar were several beds one next to the other, but only four were occupied.

On the far right was a dark-skinned woman with black curls. Her eyes were covered by a blindfold.

Judging by the uniform she was wearing, Itziar deduced that it was Lewa, the subordinate Ambrose had mentioned.

So far, everything was good.

But as her eyes slid to the left, things were getting weird.

In the next bed, there was a girl with ochre-blonde hair dressed in gray robes that belonged to the temple whom Itziar also recognized.

Mara also had a blindfold covering her eyes, but other than that, her hands were bound with a cloth. Elisha, who was in the next bed, was tied up in the same way.

As Ambrose had explained, Elisha's injuries were the most severe.

Her face was pale as a corpse; her lips dry and cracked.
