Kidnapping Case Solved

"Are you guys heading back to Orchomenus?" Merlin asked Zankoku, to which he received a nod in return. "Do you mind helping me with getting the group of people back to town?"

"We might as well." Zankoku answered. "When do you think we'll be leaving?"

Merlin and Zankoku both looked over to the woman who was still sobbing, then Merlin scanned the faces of everyone nearby until his eyes fell on an older looking woman with a sympathetic look on her face.

The woman seemed to have noticed Merlin's gaze and understood his intentions. She gave him a brief nod before approaching the woman who was crying, she began consoling her. After a few minutes, the woman calmed down, and Merlin took the opportunity to speak up.
