Aliana was speechless by how fast Lou changed his tune when it came to Iris. She knew he wouldn't harm her, but this was unsettling.
"Three magic stones. Two if you have fire magic stones." Lou stretched out his hand, as if he was asking for a candy.
"Wait here." Aliana went to the other side of the room to get the magic stone from the crates that Cane had gifted to Iris. They had sent some of the crates that contained valuable things to this pack beforehand.
In one of the letters, Cane asked about Lou and instructed Aliana what she needed to do if the merchant showed up.
It was not only Grace, Cane must want to see Iris too, but he couldn't leave his spot for long to make a round trip between the campground and the Bloody Wolf pack. The situation was very crucial there and they needed him in person.
