Food Trouble
As Lenny and Perseus went up the stairs, Tobi really wanted to follow.
After all, he had been to this place many times but had never gone up there.
Over a long period of time, a curious pull as to what was hidden in the upper level pulled him constantly.
Then again, he was a pirate, and his sharp, well-honed instinct had kept him alive for so long.
He was not so foolish as to say that he was willing to risk his life just because Lenny had told him to come up.
After all, Lenny was strong, and apparently, so was Perseus.
But these were Magi, and the subtle chaos their kind were capable of performing with negative magic was inherently always life-threatening.
As a pirate who loved life as much as treasures, the safety of downstairs was definitely more affordable.
Tobi decided not to follow the obvious agents of problems that went up the stairs.
