29 Lost (II)

"But to make sure, I think we should check the corpse at the wasp nest," I say to the knight as there might be a possibility that one of the corpses is Aliss.

Even though the knight doesn't like me to consider the possibilities dead Aliss might be dead, he still agrees to my idea as the corpse identity must be confirmed. It may give us hint whether Aliss still alive or not.

"Remember if we encountered those wasps again, I will immediately leave the area cause I got no weapon to fight them." The knight sword has rot because of the wasp stings and now it leaves the knight with his shield.

"I agree with that... It would be stupid to fight without no weapon." Besides, we both know the strength of the previous wasp. It's better to avoid them, fighting them, or meeting them will only resulting dead.

The knight then walks back to the area but again we stumbled upon the stone structure. At first, we thought that it may be some coincidence as there might be more than one. The knight continues to walk, but it seems like we always stumbled upon this stone structure.

It's as if we have been walking in circles. "Don't you think we are lost?" I ask the knight about it but the knight sure that he uses the same route that we use before.

"There is no way we lost, I am sure that I use the same path we take before." The knight keeps walking, but we still see the stone structure in the distance. There is no doubt that we are going in circles.

"I believe we are lost..." I try to convince the knight that we are lost in this forest.

"No, because...." Before the knight can finish his word we hear a buzzing noise nearby. The knight turns around, but we do not see any wasps. "I am sure that I heard something...but I guess it was nothing." The knight says.

"As I was saying, we are not lost." It seems like I cannot convince the knight that we are lost. The knight keeps walking for a few minutes and we still see the same thing again that is the stone structure.

"See, what I have told you we are lost." This time I hope that the knight would listen and agree to the fact that we are lost in the forest.

"I am sure that..."

"Don't you see that the stone structure, we had seen it likes 20 times already and yet you still believe we are not lost." I had lost my patience as I say it with an angry tone.
