502 DII. The Waiting Room

"Can we go? Kranus asked, eager to meet the men who had been maneuvering enemy troops against his forces since then.

"Yes, let's go" Dag replied, who began to walk to the door, followed by the rest of the team.

When the guards noticed that the travelers were without horses, without even checking whether they had weapons or not, they let them into the huge castle.

A large hall opened in front of them, the interior of which was bare and unfurnished.

Many people stood in front of a stairway and when they heard the door open behind them, they simultaneously turned in that direction, noting that unknown faces had just entered.

"Hello!" Dag exclaimed, trying to be polite.

Almost no one answered, except for two women with their children and an old man, sitting alone in an old chair.

"I think this is kind of a waiting room" Dag said in a low voice, speaking to his comrades privately.
