The Terrible Witch Pt.I

So, I messed up big time. The only leverage I had on Zana, I accidentally revealed it didn’t exist. At that point, I expected for a big battle where she’d kill me, but she simply asked me to leave her cave. I tried to talk her into rethinking it, but in a rage, she let the aura she had been hiding flare and sacked me out of the cave.

Currently we were on our way back to the lizardman village to get the others and teleport right back to the West.

“Hey, you there.”

We encountered a snake person on our way.

‘Who are you?’

I forwarded a message to their minds. Its eyes widened in brief shock, before completely disregarding my question.

“Follow me to my village for a moment.”

They said,

“I have information that will be very crucial to you.”

‘Huh? Don’t ignore my question in favour of your own.’

The snake person still slithered past me into the fog.

‘Oi. Snake dude, girl, person, thing? I don’t know what your deal is, but either you speak now or we just leave.’
