That Night As I Remembered It
Akun continued, "This certain individual started his mission without a problem. Knowing what they were capable of, they must have at least made it into the tree castle undetected."
As Akun made that statement, the dryad elders collectively mused, "Just how skilled is this person to be able to make it past all of our guards undetected?"
Elder Aelorin pondered, "But, after seeing everything the young liege is capable of, this person may just be as skilled as he says." A bead of sweat streamed down her cheeks as she mused.
Akun pressed on, "Unfortunately, I don't know what happened to them after they made it in. What I do know is I was expecting word from them in a week's time, but two weeks had passed, and still, nothing." Gritting his teeth and clenching his fists, Akun recounted the tale, making the atmosphere in the royal chambers of the dryad rulers feel a bit hard to breathe due to his anger.
