Chapter 16: Party Hopping

Jinzic noticed Archon, as we were nearing, and ran over to greet us as soon as we got off. We exchanged friendly hugs and he insisted on showing us around. Their homes were small, simple stone structures, quite unlike the somewhat elaborate woody homes of the ogres.

I enquired after his parents' and he happily said they were doing well and resting at home. "Their age does not allow them to actively celebrate, and they need the rest after years of captivity. My nephew is enjoying himself with his friends. Would you like to meet my parents?"
