44 Leaving Lamia

"Who are you? Why did you burn our village?" asked Arvindo stroking Diya's head, who was crying for Ishit, for the family thought the boy couldn't escape the fire. 

Ishit was speechless. He had thought the villagers would flee for their lives after seeing him, but here they were interrogating him. Ishit could reckon the reason. The folks of this part of Glassia had never experienced any invasion or anything like this. They hadn't seen the horror of wars. The tales that Lomans brought with them were nothing but pastimes to the villagers. The druids and the evil stone giants they fought with were just characters of their folklores. 

If Ishit wanted to make them run for their lives, he would have to show them the horror coming there at any moment.
