From the black market area, Nikos reappeared with his subordinates Liriel and Marielle in a secluded alleyway. The surrounding air was quiet and undisturbed.
"Yes, that ish the human," a small lizard-man pointed at Nikos.
That small lizard-man was none other than Kalek, who had been following and keeping track of Nikos. He had exited the black market first to inform his group, and now was the perfect opportunity to get rid of Nikos for good and bring their chief back to their tribe.
Nikos, standing in front of his subordinates, suddenly stopped in his tracks. The group of lizard-folk at the end of the alley stared at him.
"What's happening, master?" Marielle asked from behind, but Nikos didn't answer, his mind is preoccupied with other things.
