Call Me Grandma (Part 2)

"I will leave an unprotected opening near the third turret of the west wall. Once you get in, use the secondary entrance." Jirni closed the call the moment she was done talking, making it too quick to trace.

Lith had no problem following the instructions and sneaking past the otherwise insurmountable crystal walls that surrounded the Ernas household. Somehow, Jirni had set up a small hole that was invisible unless one knew where to look that disappeared the moment after Lith passed through it.

"If I knew what waited for me at home, I would have never gotten back." Friya said with a sigh while greeting him. "I would have come with you, even if it meant to be the third wheel for the whole time."

"What do you mean?" Lith said while looking at the entire Ernas family that waited for him in one of the innermost and most secure tea rooms of the house.

All of them looked tired and worried, except Jirni who welcomed Lith with a youthful smile.
