He added, "We believe there are insiders undermining our security. We need to work together to stop them."

Noa pondered for a moment, thinking that perhaps this was a good time to ally with his friends. They need to work together to uncover the dark truth that threatens their village. Carefully, he agreed, "Okay, let's look for clues together."
