Blinking away the remnants of sleep, Larion observed Lily tending to his burns and injuries as the wagon trundled along.

Moments later, guards brought in chairs, and both Larion and Lily, exchanging wary glances, sat down, their focus shifting to Durin seated behind the desk."What is the meaning of this discussion?" Larion inquired once more."And why would we entertain your schemes against the empire?" Lily's tone matched Larion's caution.Examining the map, Durin retrieved papers from beneath it, scanning through them. "Are you perhaps from Theodus?" Durin's question hung in the air, directed more at Lily than Larion.While Larion remained silent, Lily avoided the question pointedly. "Choosing silence, are we? No matter.

I caught more rabbits than you, remember! Ouch! Stop pulling my hair!" Larion chuckled, holding onto the meat.Witnessing the playful squabble between Lily and Larion, Simon, the newcomer rebel guard, couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Priceless reaction, my friend!" he managed to say between fits of giggles. Rolling his eyes, Larion retorted, "Oh, ha! ha! very funny." As Simon's laughter subsided, he plopped down beside Larion, a mischievous twinkle in his eye. "But I must admit, it would be an honor to serve under your command." "Yeah, dream on.
