Welcome to the dark side

"Sir, I have left the guild."

Derek's message was short and simple.

He hadn't contacted him for this long and now all of a sudden he replied? What could have possibly changed?

Liam silently pondered for a bit and then a thought entered his mind. He had just now contacted several guilds to make his trade arrangements.

But he hadn't contacted two for obvious reasons.

One was his old friends' guild, Divine Retribution and the other was Derek's guild. 

He wondered if this for some reason affected the flow of things and ended up being in his favor. 

Knowing how his guildmates treated him, they most probably would have blamed him for everything and once again harassed him.

But this was the usual occurrence? What could have been the breaking point?

Maybe there was some huge altercation resulting in Derek getting kicked out or him leaving voluntarily?

"Well, whatever."
