Plop... Plop...

The sound of slimes bouncing around came to me, it was barely even light outside when it had come. And I had thought nothing of it at first.

Plop... Plop...

But then there was a sudden movement of hostility, one that I would never have allowed, nor would they even think of.

My summons were better than that.

And so it was because of that, that I found myself outside.

Even as the sun rose and shone through my eyes and blinded me for a moment.

I took that as a sign.

For in that moment I found a fraud, a dud, whatever you wanted to call it. I found them scurrying about.

I did not know how they made it into the barrier, whether it was underground or above. But they had made it in.

Now that I think of it, I stroked my chin, it was probably because the guards let them back in.
