The Three Fingers

Paku watched as Felicia ran away from her. She wanted to scream and escape, but she had a responsibility on her shoulders.

'For Piku," Paku thought and clenched her hands together. She smiled softly and looked at the two knights before her.

"Aren't you a lovely one? I haven't seen you around here," the knight with blonde hair whispered with a smirk. He leaned closer as Paku stepped back. 

They were currently in the forest to do the deed after the knights paid Paku. The coins they gave were in her hands and was debating if she would keep them or not. 

"Hey, don't take too long—" the other knight at the back stated since he wanted to go back to their post as soon as possible.

"Don't say our names," the knight said and faced Paku again. "Sorry about that. You can call me A and that guy over there is B. Is that fine? We can call you C to keep our identity safe, heh," he added and leaned closer.
