The Dame

...Missing?

In that moment, Benjamin’s heart gave a thump, an uneasy feeling curling inside it.

The other mages that were surrounding them, at that moment, also emerged out of the darkness. They all wore puzzled expressions, gathered together, looking at each other, the pirates who didn’t know what was going on just stood there trembling.

"When we left camp, wasn’t Augustine still with you guys? How can he go missing?" Benjamin asked as he took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself.

Andy corrected his breathing, opened his mouth and related to them everything that happened:

A while after you left, we were in the tent, suddenly we heard a weird sound outside. At the time, Augustine asked us to stay inside as he went outside to see what was happening. After waiting for a while, Augustine was still not back, we all felt it was weird, so the both of us left the tent..."

Hearing this, Benjamin frowned and immediately said, "then, you couldn’t find him?"
