The Darkness Beyond Light (8)

1

While running through the castle's lower floors a weird thought suddenly hits Goro.

"Drunkard… If I blow away a few floors of the lower parts it won't make much of a difference, right?"

"Yeah… but are you sure you want to discuss that with one of the queen's personal forces?"

"I mean if something goes wrong the blame will be on you. Also, why are you tagging along. You gonna help me or something?"

"YOU'RE THE ONE WHO PICKED ME UP, WEREN'T YOU?"

"Ah… Now that I think about it."

They keep running through the long passages of the lower floors and don't encounter even a single soldier or a guard.

"There's no one on this floor either. There were supposed to be three guards here."

"What's wrong? Your soldiers won't listen to you?"

"No. Something is wrong. Also the prison cells feel empty too."
