389 The Child in The Darkness

To their surprise the area they had ventured into was not a trap or trial. It was actually as serene as it had appeared to be. One of Jiro's men caved and ate the fruit that hung from the trees, they all watched him eat greedily and waited for something to happen. 5 minutes, 10 minutes then an hour went by but nothing happened. The other quickly pounced on the fruit and ate to their hearts content. "I'm trying the fish next." The soldier said as the others continued to eat their fruit.

He rushed over towards the small lake and looked inside. "It's filled with the fattest fish I have ever seen in my life!" He happily shouted back to the others. Jiro and his men laughed as they watched the soldier catch the fish skillfully with his bare hands. They then quickly started a fire and ate the fish. They had no idea how much timw had passed by but their bellies were full and the their minds were at peace.
