"H-hello? Is anybody here?" Zero asked in his most innocent voice as they reached the cave entrance.
Bob returned to his human hybrid form quickly and adjusted to the dimness in the cave. Truen readied some spells to thwart any surprise attacks. The cave was very much destroyed at the entrance, and people of their size wouldn't fit through the rubble. Without a way further in, they waited patiently for a response.
"He's coming," Bob whispered when he felt some slight tremor in the ground that neither Zero nor Truen could detect. If it wasn't for Jermine's influence and jumpscare tendencies, Bob wouldn't have paid so much attention to ground movements.
They waited for shipwright Pocky to make his appearance. When the sea otter beastman finally showed up, Zero had trouble identifying his age.
