A short way to the Village.

I woke up with the first rays of the sun. The girls were still asleep, so I got up and went out. The view was beautiful. A beautiful composition of the old forest and the first rays of light. She gave a beautiful effect. When I was starving so much, I saw many wild animals in the distance, but each of them fled. I do not know why.

I reached out a bit and saw that the girls were up. Alice stood up and stretched, sighing charmingly. Jean helped Lea stand up and correct her clothes.

(Krius) - Good, ready to go further.

(Alice) - Sure. Catch the fur cover in the morning is cold.

Saying this, she chewed on the fur of the Ice Hound. I put it on my back like a coat, and tied it with my hands under my neck.

(Krius) - Well, it's on the road.

(Krius) - Well, it's on the road.

(Lea) - For hands.

Lea ran up to me wanting me to wear it. The innocence of the child is really adorable. I don't know why but don't be afraid of me and he even likes me. My goblin face does not deter her. I took her in my arms and we moved on. I was walking past. And the girls carried meat in baskets covered with a cloth.

The girls told me that the village is not far away. At a distance of about half a kilometer. They didn't tell me that literally kilometers but feet. Calculated about half a kilometer. No matter.

When we walked through the woods, unlike the previous day. The conversations bloomed amazingly. Among other things, I learned that their village is called "Isna". Which means, because this is what our village mainly trades in. The village is close to the border with unexplored areas. Full of unknown monsters and creatures. Nobody ventures there. She also described me construction of the village. That there are less than seventy inhabitants. With each passing year there is less and less because of the monsters prowling nearby. There are rumors that they have their den somewhere. The conversation lasted for an hour.

Until we saw a small village surrounded by high wooden cheese. Four archers can be seen on the moors who defend the entrance gate. I'm not sure how they make up for me. I put on the hood just in case. Made of Ice Hound's head.

(Alice) - I will speak calmly.

When we came to the sea. The guards immediately began to aim at us with a bow. One of them after a deeper look at the person who approached the land. He saw and knew that they were Alice, Jean and Lea who had gone missing yesterday.

(Guard) - Listen, let somebody run to the village head. Let him say that the girls are safe.

When the guard stopped talking, he looked at me. From the angle he was looking at me, he couldn't see my goblin-like face.

(Guard) - Wait a moment.

After a while, the gates opened. And an older man ran out through them. Dressed in leather clothes. With elements of metal armor. [Link in the comment.] And in his company four archers. Who were measuring at me now.

At the sight of the man, Alice and Jean put the baskets on the ground and ran towards him.

(Elder village) - My daughters. - He hugged them and then looked at me.

(Elder village) - Guard.

And the bows even more tense.

(alice) - Dad, calm down, he saved us. And he escorted. P

The village elder withdrew his archers. And he said to me.

(Elder Village) - First, lay Lea on the land and step back. I'm not stupid to trust you so soon.

Not having much choice, I put Lea on the ground and she ran towards Jean.

(Elder Village) - Good and now take out the weapon.

I have no choice. I took my wooden spear behind my back and dumped it at the feet of an older village.

Again, with a gesture of his hand, he commanded his people to stretch the bows again.

(Elder Village) - Now take off the hood wants to see your face.

(Alice) - Dad .....- Father interrupted her with a gesture of his hand and waited for my reaction.

(Krius) - But before I do that I want to ask you one question.

(Elder village) - Which?

(Krius) - Are you fanatical about other species that are not human?

(Elder Village) - Son, I'm already old. I fought many wars and I know that even people can be monsters, so I don't look like others with my eyes. But also the brain. "Saying the last sentence, he showed his head with his finger.

As soon as I had at least minimal confidence that they were not shooting me. I managed the hood with my right hand. The guards' eyes were slightly scared and the arches began to stretch even more. But the older village didn't even change his expression when he saw it. He still had a serious stone face. He looked deep into my eyes and I looked into his.

And the fact that mine are crimson didn't scare him.

(Elder Village) - Good to lower your weapon.

(Guardian) -But?

(Elder Village) - No ale. He doesn't threaten us. Trust me . I know people.

(Guard) - But he's not a man.

(Senior Village) - I didn't mean that. I thought he was actually good. He has the same eyes as I used to.

As soon as the elder of the village gave me a signal, I approached him and walked with him into the interior of the village. I already wanted to put the hood on again so as not to frighten the inhabitants. But when my hand was about to grab the hood, she was stopped by an older village. Who nodded to me in a characteristic way. Saying that I have to cover and be confident.

We were now heading through the streets of small villages. Many residents were glad to hear that the girls were alive and well. As soon as they saw the girls who were walking with their father to the house of the older Village. The smile appeared on their faces but as soon as they saw me the expression changed from happy to slightly suspicious. But they trusted the Elder enough that they did not react as if ordinary villagers did. And so after a while we went to the largest house in the village. To the house of an older village.
