Let Me Take Care Of You

My feet were sore by the time I made it to wherever this was.

It was another tent, but quite a stretch from the one we were coming from before. I could feel my hand sticky with blood, my head was spinning and my empty stomach grumbled loudly once again.

At this point, I really didn't care.

He went into the tent, and I followed.

Voices eased themselves into silence at our appearance and from the corner of my eyes, I could see the ladies in the room bow their lowly, very lowly, in greeting.

My gaze was still planted on the ground and I could see the lanterns that were placed at the far ends of the brown leather tents, than the people standing in front of him.

My neck ached from how much I was bowing, it was something my body was very unused to.

Not even General Liy demanded this kind of show of respect from me.

I had to escape from this place one way or another, maybe these women would be able to help me.

I laughed manically in my head.
