"Return soon, Prime Arys," called out Prime Wolfden as I stepped into the gate. "I will," I lied.
I had told them I am going out for two weeks and remained close as always, but it's a lie. I will be out for more than two weeks; three to four weeks at least.
The soul senses tracked me till I reached the last layer, before they disappeared.
I didn't feel relief, so I spread my senses far and wide. Sensing people, the cultists. A lot of them have been moving near the village.
It is why they had forbidden most people from going out. There might be a truce, but there is no trusting the cultists.
We must be as careful as possible when dealing with them. It is why, the moment I walked into the blind spot of their soul senses, I took out my abode and entered inside.
It is very hard to find my abode than me. The last couple of times, the cultists searched for me far and wide, but they had never found me.
Step!
