48 Izidor's secret

After a moment of consideration, Ruchito agreed to Ishit's plan.

Though it was risky, it was the only way to alert Avida before the invaders got to Vasta. 

The plan was simple; they would lead Adard to Sukrita's statue and trick him to attack the stone warrior. 

"Are you sure he doesn't know the secret of the statue?" Ishit asked again. He was worried that if the fake healer knew their motive, their plan would fail apart. 

"Yes! You can be sure about that. Not many in Glassia knew the secret of nine statues," replied Ruchito, 

Ishit gave his saviour a long look. 

"Are you sure? I mean even an apprentice of a blackwater shrine, like you, knows it, then how come a man , who has been conspiring against the empire for years, doesn't know about it" said Ishit. 

"You don't need to know ." Ruchito replied, "By the way, the interlude is over. Adard is coming for us"
