"We'll talk about what to do about those zombies later, okay?" Jannah assured them before they could react, smiling in their direction.
"But, my lady—"
"It's okay, Kirie." Jannah cuts off the maid with a shushing motion of her hand, "We'll discuss it later."
The tone of her voice was firm, leaving no room for disagreement or rebuttal. Duke Eulicies and Kirie looked at Jeriel, hoping to that it makes Jannah think of dealing with the zombies right now, but Jeriel merely looked away.
If her big sister said that they'll talk about it later then they'll talk about it later.
Jeriel kept her head turn away from the two, staring blankly in the dark and looming forest beside them.
"Anyways." Jannah spoke up and intentionally breaks the silent tension, "I'm going to build a wall around the town. I'll use the same thing I used to sneak inside Rye."
