A Game With God

When Politics Enters

Noon already passed as they got out of the tent. Argos leads the team towards where the vice chief is. Like the villagers, she stays in a tent but her place is separated from the villagers and is protected by some guards. They tried to pass but the guards blocked their way.

"No official business until the crisis is over," one of the guards said.

"Is the vice here? We're adventurers. We would like to hear more about these," Walter asked.

"I said no official business," shouts the guard as they push the team back.

"Just a word with her is fine! Please let us!" Walter shouted with struggle. Moments later, the woman inside the tent spoke.

"Stop! Let them in." The guards gave them the way. As they go inside, they've seen a half-elf with red eyes. She turns around as they enter. Her appearance is gaunt and her tears are just recently swept out like she's hiding them. "I'd just thought that we won't need outside help, but I was wrong," she said.
