PRELUDE TO WHAT’S TO COME
While waiting for the said shipment from the Outer World to arrive, Alex suddenly received a text from Nana telling him to come to the camp area and leave the barrel of Blood Pond behind.
This confused him a bit because he was sure that she had tracked down the Dark Beings that went out to retrieve more Blood Pond essence. Knowing that she had more at hand, Alex figured out that something had happened and she had a plan that required the barrel of essence.
He recalled the things that Camron wrote to him and the broadcast that Adrian made.
Alex had no problem with giving Nana the rest of the essence if she needs, knowing fully well that Nana would give him things like this even if she needed it herself.
The only problem he had with this was that he could miss the moment the shipment arrived if he chose to leave at any time.
