77 - Realization

That was the first time Lucian had noticed it. But seeing how they had all agreed with him was very strange.

"Everyone can confirm this?" Lucian uttered out loud.

A bunch of "Yes!" were heard. They were all completely sure that their chief wasn't lying.

"I see, what about you, Durin? Is he telling the truth?"

Lucian turned toward Durin for the very first time, putting a little bit of attention on him. He didn't look scared, he looked very relaxed.

Maybe he really didn't have anything to reproach himself about. Maybe he wasn't the one who had done this.

"I think so? Who knows really? I did feel that I was stronger when I accepted to join his group."

Lucian nodded quickly. Durin wasn't different from the rest of them, which made sense. There was no reason for him to be in a different position.

"Alright, you can stay here. I'll talk to you later. As for you, Borin, you can join the rest of your comrades."
