“What?” His loud voice made them flinch.
“It’s okay! We were watching our backs when we made our way to here and there was no one following us.” One of them exclaimed hoping his statement would calm his Lord.
“Wha- Do you expect me to believe that? Do you think that I- Never mind! Get out! Now!” with that their Lord slumped down on his chair.
They didn’t need to be told again, they rushed out the office room as fast as they can.
‘Ah! Now I need to move my settling area!
But before I do that, I need to check if someone was following them. I can’t risk that.’
Determined that he will find and catch whosever came following them, he started yelling orders confusing the once calm people that were around.
The prisoners reached their destination by morning shocking everyone. The word that they were caught went fast and soon everyone accepted that and they wouldn’t be shocked even if they ended up dying there but they obviously had it rough.
