Steamed Dumpling was wallowing in his unfortunate situation when he heard footsteps. Metal shoes scrapped the floor, and the "Ka cha" sounds made him uneasy.
He could clearly hear the voices of the Orcs, Gnomes, and Houndhead Men outside. He didn't know the time, but the creatures outside didn't need to rest. Steamed Dumpling found that it was always noisy outside regardless of whether he was sleeping or awake. He had only been kept there for two days.
There was neither a clock nor sunshine, so he had no grasp of time and could only guess whether it was day or night.
A creature got close to the prison entrance, causing Steamed Dumpling to lift up his head in the darkness. He recognized the Orc leader, Arthur, who caught him and George.
The Orc stood before the prison and used his hand to signal opening the door and two fingers to indicate walking. George looked at the Orc's actions as well, but neither of them knew what Arthur was doing.
