The F*cked up Situation

"Alright," Auric replied, determination firm in his voice. "Let's just hide these weapons and artifacts somewhere nearby. A place where we can easily retrieve them later."

With a shared understanding, Auric and Sam both knew that their best option was to temporarily hide the weapons and artifacts in a location nearby. They scanned their surroundings, seeking a spot that would keep their loot safe.

What Auric had in mind was a hollowed tree or a little cave of rocks, where people won't stumble upon and  find them unless they knew where exactly to search at.

Searching after a few minutes, Auric's eyes then caught sight of a hollowed tree just a short distance away. Its interior seemed spacious enough to hold their findings without arousing suspicion. He nodded toward the tree, signaling his idea to Sam.
