#Chapter25
Be smart
Talus' POV
I sat on a boulder and stared at the campfire. The flames burnt fiercely, waves of hot gas jarring my vision. I glanced around the camp. Tents had been set up and some soldiers took turns keeping watch.
/"May I join you, Lord?/" Isalo asked, walking up to me.
/"Yes./"
He sat next to me and stared at the sky. /"The sky is so dark. Thank heavens for the stars./"
I glanced at the crystal like star. /"They're indeed beautiful./"
/"What of the moon?/" He pointed at it.
/"It's silver lighting is outstanding./"
He cleared his throat and glanced around. /"Lord, why did you change the route?/"
/"I have my reasons./" I searched for my commander. /"Where's Janos?/"
/"He's having a meal with some soldiers./"
I sniffed. /"Tell him to rally ten of his finest men and meet me here./"
/"Okay, Lord./" Isalo left.
