Things get more complicated

He took one more look at them and he could see they now conversing in low tones this time nut their faces still carried confused expressions.

Tobin decided to come out again, knowing he could not stay inside for ever. He would have to face his fears. Since the wolf didn't hurt any of them it could only mean that it must have been well trained. At least now he knew one name and it was the name of the wolf. How unlucky.

"Lord Harold, please what is happening? The older boy demanded trying to sound as respectful as he could with his eyes down as Tobin walked back to them.

He knew they must have been talking about his behavior so far..

"By chance did the Hut make you forget somethings as your father feared" the younger one spoke this time with an hint of fear in his voice.

But that was all Tobin needed to give as an excuse. He was smart enough to understand what he meant by that statement.

"I am sure it did, I can barely remember somethings. I think my time in the hut must have done that" Tobin replied hoping in his heart that they would buy his story.

He saw the wolf taking careful steps to him maybe so that he would not run again. Tobin himself decided he wasn't going to run but his legs were thinking otherwise as they began to shake.

"He will not hurt you, he is your pet " the older one assured him sensing his fear..

"And what are your names? Tobin asked looking at them curiously as he tries to remove his mind from the wolf making advance to him. He would need a distraction to stand still

"I am Tyre and this is Calvin " The older one replied again replying him slowly asif he was scared he also lost his ability to process information fast.

That was it then, he had the perfect excuse under his belt. He could now go around and if ever he gets pressed to the wall he would make an excuse about losing his memory. He would have to draw Tyre and Calvin very close to him so he could learn one or two things on his own.

He was sure he would make better friends with Calvin the younger one because he could feel more relaxed talking to him.

"Do you remember who you are? Tyre asked to how much they would have to educate them befor they get back to their kingdom.

Tobin raised his head high at this question asif he would need to strike a good posture. He remembered the exact way Harold stood while introducing himself.

"I am Young Lord Harold, a wizard of the 2nd order "Tobin was sure he remembered Harold saying something like that

"Wizard of the second order? Tyre asked as he looked at Calvin to be sure he heard the same thing.

"Yes, second order" Tobin replied. From the look on their faces he knew he had made another mistake. Where the hell did the world second order come from. It must be from the movies and books he had watched. He shut his eyes knowing it would not be totally good if he doesn't get some things right.

"We have never heard of an order my Lord. That is strange " Calvin blurted out almost shutting himself immediately. It was asif he was being careful with what he was saying.

"Don't worry, you won't understand this things. If you had entered the hut with me you would have known. There were mysteries I was revealed to that we don't know about just yet. So let it be" He waved their worries away with swing of his hand as he began to take a wall through the only bush part he could see.

The others followed behind him in silence with Bam walking very close to him. Tobin was still gradually getting used to the fact that he had a pet and a wolf for that matter.

He was not a great fan of keeping pets but who the hell will keep a wolf as pet. It sounded very absurd. Maybe people in a magic land but then he had yet to experience any form of magic so far.

"Lord Harold at this pace I am not sure we will get to the mansion soon, we are wondering why you don't want to use a portal " Tyre asked him after they have walked awkardly for five minutes with alot running through the mind of Tobin. He remembered Harold had told him that the more quiet he could be thr easier it would be for him.

"A portal? Tobin asked more to himself. Thanks to his knowlegde about these things he knew what a portal was but no idea on how he could do that.

"I thought, I should walk around this forest alot but anyway let's create the portal. Tyre create one for us" Tobin orders him smartly

They both turned looking surprised at his request.

"Why are you looking surprised? Or can't you create a portal? Tobin asked praying in his mind.

"Of course I can, you have taught us but you have never permitted us to do. Your betrothed Lady Naomi also strongly warns against it for us" Tyre replied it as he wondered why he was making that request out of the blue.

" Did you just say betrothed? Tobin asked wide eyed to be sure he heard correctly.

"Yes, Lady Naomi a mistress of Portals is your betrothed " Tyre replied.

Tobin immediately froze at those words. Why the hell did Harold forget to mention this piece of information. Just when he was adjusting he got hit with another complicating story
