The elves in that tribe could not stop talking about the mysterious youth in their tribe and the accusations toward their current chief. It was not something that had happened in a long time, and for the first time in many years, the position of the tribe's chief could change before the chief's retirement.
Arthur was happy with the development — not having to fight against multiple enemies — but he was still careful toward the older man who had the power of a peak rank-three mage.
Why? No one could know the man was trustworthy; perhaps he could be part of the dark magic. Then, after the first encounter, everyone else returned to their businesses, and only Arthur, the chief, and the older man remained.
The trio walked together throughout the tribe and went toward the biggest tree around, the location of the tribe's chief house. Once inside, Arthur was the first to speak, "do you know where my friend is? Agatha's boyfriend or husband, I don't know."
