"I don't get it, why don't we go to a different isle? The Imperialsh will have ush shurrounded in no time."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCeA2W2QQF

"Too many people to move, they'll notice us."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXliUqUzDX
"Never shtopped ush before." A pause as the old man spat to the side. "What about fighting then, too little of ush?"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkI7IwVKg8E
Gob shook his head, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8OfCcLMGO
tired. David could understand that, and he was annoyed he could 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sI0lT1vvU
empathize with Gob. As per Gob's decision every time it was David's turn598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUs5FKALYH7
to go patrolling Gob accompanied him. At first David found this 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAPBNSyTkZ
insulting, he was the paragon of trust after all, but after a few of 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR14lDNObXN
such patrols he just found it annoying. Ever patrol was usually 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdQRkb37Rn
conducted with 3 or 4 people, usually with different people. There were a598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9R83pDYKxZ
few constants in those groups though, the first was that David and Gob 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6ZbIf2cL0
were in them and the second was that someone always asked when they 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tWTCbaHC0
would move.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56PaZ8zgra
Now David has only been 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsmerIfHp7
in the camp for a month now and managed to glean some information from 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibKCrOWFPN
the other rebels and just observations. There were three groups of 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFx1XG8EMZ
rebels. Peasants, peasant-soldiers and soldiers, as David liked to call 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPO3DtJvUo4
them. Peasants and peasant-soldiers were the people with no, to only 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8aGhWOmZB
basic, military training. Such as Denis and his ilk. The soldiers 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2icpTu5Pd
weren't necessary from the military, but they had more experience. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjj2hm5tUA8
Experience wasn't the only difference, civilians and civilian soldiers 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cbpa2K4Yj
loved and trusted both Gob and Francesca. Soldiers only trusted Gob. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYxTbpYJq2
Which worked out nicely for David as he could use this discord and 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY3LVENndN
divided loyalties.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4f5ThjZ9E
Another important thing 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcElqLfiR7
he managed to find out was that the rebels had stayed on the same isle 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JWgwAXSaK
for three months. Many of the rebels were unhappy with the prolonged 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCJwBoSrwd
stay, especially the soldiers. This resulted in that question and Gob 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UeINIekNp
giving the same answer to anyone who asked. It was really riveting stuff598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUlW4YQKG0
for David, especially after hearing it for the twentieth third time. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFpCi0ZV3h
Ol' Stevie asked it around two or three times over the past few days to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPXJis34rl
their destination.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38OJBuSzMQ
Today they were out 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJauAg52NN
looking at the new imperial camp, turning into more of a makeshift fort,598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxsLXLtAZP
being built around the wreckage of the 'Flying Fish'. It was a crude 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXfHs7emPY
construction, something that could be easily taken apart. They were 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKlsb60HY6
joined by Rock and another rebel, called old toothless Stevie, on 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2yYAEn0Cf
account of him being old and having lost most of his teeth. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpEkLtSbJc
"Yes, now shut up and 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpheNLq8SRE
remember everything you can about the imperials." Stevie shrugged at 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA66HOLIkA
that and continued looking through his binocular. David kept further 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSamsJIiNy
away from the pair, watching their backs with Rock, the youth did not 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcWoqPV4ww
become any more talkative during Davids stay in the caves.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWSlTXhnri
They were at their 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RPI4EE4nC
lookout spot for a few hours at this point and David was glad he didn't 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0AZReW4m2
feel any magical tugs coming from that direction, after discussing it 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fB2ny6MWL
with Francesca it turned out that what David felt was a magical tug, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjf53UC1vCS
looked like the imperial soldier wasn't anywhere near it.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBm8CH2Li9
"Alright, that's enough.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSKW0E7mbY
Let's head back." Gob proclaimed to the group and David sighted in 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6q3bTRoyol
relief. Thankfully David was given new shoes, to help him walk, as well 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJNWXiE1tV
as new clothes and even an eyepatch. The walk itself was silent and 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLoDlKF75h
brutal. Gob set a murderous pace and he didn't look back to check on any598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQz6XRVKUa
of them except for Rock, who bore it with his usual silence.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBTcvbqvKT
David walked in silence 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9X2ydUNw58
as well. More to preserve his breathe, than anything else, as he felt 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeAvyGYSZr
that he would fall to the ground if he even tried speaking. Toothless 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAOWKzUcnu
Stevie may have been old and not have teeth, but he had more stamina 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrseTNYUQdt
than David, farm work really built you up for long hours of activity.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkx4FbpC4G
A walk that would've 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2a5gPwu07W
taken most of the day was managed in about half a day. David was so glad598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsunbf4mnD
to see the damp cave that he was ready to kiss the rocks when he came 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoAiP5Xa2f
inside. The camp itself did not change much over the past month and 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgDalLB0o6
David was still the new guy. Though he made good strides in integrating 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uK7jk3ApM
himself as most of rebels waved to him in greeting.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xhvIWn8sR
"I'll go report to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTmzGm55dS
Francesca. You can go relax." Gob passed David without a glance at him. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GkLviR5T3
The fact that Gob didn't glare or spit at David's direction must've 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcbo94zOWA
meant that he was finally warming up to him! At least it was more than 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk1XF7MEtm
David got over the past month, in fact he was ready to give up on ever 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Xi59QD6CS
winning Gob over.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EO84mOpLJ
Francesca on the other 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgiCinMjCz
hand warmed up to him quite fast. As Denis summarized and David 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Pe702m5xm
confirmed she was a noble, a well read and knowledgeable noble but 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDkOCiDJIl
someone who hasn't left her estate a lot and has never traveled outside 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCghXejmID
the empire. While David was the well-traveled dashing smuggler. He 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vuIZbCeEt
managed to enthrall her with made up stories and adventures. To be fair 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2McI7q5Ws
to Francesca she wasn't the only one falling under David's charm. As 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwu591PcOA
most of the rebels found it hard to resist the dashing rogue act.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4vHjm90w1
David just wished he 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5CPEYPwms
could win them over without going on patrols and risking his life. Oh 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsF4Log42G
well no one said being a parasite was easy.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZpiSynB9K
Further down the camps 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6flFVJUlF
he could see Twitch, the nervous brother of Denis. Over the past month 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQ5wZMbTxg
he integrated himself with the siblings, becoming a part of their gang. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebAFhmOWSZ
As the siblings were liked by the rebels in general this made them trust598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonhCvE3VBK
David all the more. David decided to join Twitch so he snuck up behind 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgNdmpVCBY
him. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsWbdrRjkK
"What'cha doing?"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLzb824lPp
Twitch practically jumped out of his own skin. "Agh! Oh D-david. Don't s-scare me l-l-like that."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLWBGaDFtP
"Sorry, twitch." David said patting the boys shoulder. "Didn't mean to, you know I hate doing it." He loved it598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXVoQoC1Zp
Twitch nodded and stood beside David." 'S alright. I-I-I'm just easily sca-ar-ared."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzvT6pwsGt
David nodded. The boy 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJXN2RgCjR
was lucky to have any friends at all." Nothing wrong with being scared."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2Uq22cqt7
He said with a comforting smile. "We all have our own strengths, like 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bplKPnTcR
you..." David paused for a bit racking his mind for something to say. "A598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWVc7uzlVG
poet! A man of dreams! How're your poems going anyway? I still want to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oAjzcI0Oh
read them someday."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjmx9aYYYT
Twitch muttered 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqeYwBiLdl
something under his breathe. David motioned with his hand for him to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzK3LU6Pdpf
speak up. "...n-not poems. But son-so-songs."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fubtw3qNy
David stopped himself from shrugging and smiled. "Songs, even better then! Why not create a song for the rebellion?"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Yh0m7oXuJ
Twitch started shaking 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWXrzfrFCT
his head but before the words: 'No' formed on his mouth a voice 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8s7JZYLG2J
interrupted them. "A hymn truly sounds marvelous!" Francesca made Twitch598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniSyPJKXwX
jump back even more than David did598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCxkj9dctM
"I-I-I" He continued in that vain for a while.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsc3BJ60uYo
"Speak up soldier!" Gobs598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8EJfQoGih
voice resounded around the cave, making everyone glance at Twitch, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jEkQGi6OX
which should've made his stuttering worse. But his fear of Gob took over598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoPnA1obIJ
any instinct he had.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdddbLYXza
"I'mnotgoodenough!" He 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLNv4PAsAa
said as fast possible. David was astounded it was probably the first 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ML9ol1Uk5
time the boy didn't stutter. Not that he could understand what he said 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH11Lc7VteW
now.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAgAQ1NSsO
"Nonsense." Francesca 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiLoeqh9pt
put her hand on Twitch's shoulder. She didn't seem to have any trouble 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ033KKbt5Ei
understanding him. "Write me a song when you can, and we will sing it, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPt1NK7S8J
all of us together." She projected her voice to others nearby which 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8miRd9wJQp
raised a rugged cheer. That just made Twitch hide his face as it went 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYc1V5QGRjx
dark red.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiEZ71pQwb
Francesca spared Twitch 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9lde6bL98
one last warm smile and turned to the rest of the rebels standing 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgjVPkQL3M
around. "It's time for your daily studies! Spread the message!" Both 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdZldpTCGu
children and adults listened to Francesca, without a hint of 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxo6cKQ9hh
disobedience, and started moving in one line to the study cavern, as it 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlchSA59JY
was popularly called.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbcchQQiz8
The rebels not only 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Lq88ruvHw
respected Francesca for her leadership and attitude towards the 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmt7pxvUwd
peasantry, but also her attempts to educate them. Most of the rebels 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBxhnNdhhC
didn't know how to read or basic math while Francesca was an educated 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU7QtlRGNV
noble, thus she decided to teach everyone in the rebellion the basics. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhwcfcXZuE
No one was barred from the lessons and both young and old were invited 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdieg5Lauiv
to them. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqivmltTiL5
David attended one of 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXgewujiRu
those lessons but found himself too bored to continue. They were talking598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUOt6mcEbH
about letter and numbers and some researcher named Vesputti or 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7CruRVbXr
something similar. Thus, he skipped over on those lessons, he wasn't the598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDiYW2oxtx
only one as most of the adults had decided that they were too old to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdds2SMfhuF
learn anything new.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIXOtroEdi
Before leading her group598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqssElHMHib
to the secluded cavern, Francesca approached David. "I'd like if you'd 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJuVmFH95X
dine with me tonight, if it's to your liking?"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDXMgNJS9i
"Of course, I'll see you598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjmJCLX88P
later." Francesca did that sometimes, inviting David over. Chatting 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaN1bLdzRI
about trivialities, like whether he had any more vision about The Five. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHMCq5vgk8
Thankfully Jester didn't deign to appear yet so David managed to sleep 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwD8yaqug3
peacefully, well not accounting the strange dreams about some boy crying598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhAcj6e02Y
and calling for his mummy. Those dreams made David wake up in a foul 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUh0sv8Xbf
mood, he wasn't certain why but thought it could be because he didn't 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BbmpQ1qEG
remember his parents or family.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdaajHziND
Francesca, unaware of 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWGDCSoFTy
David's thoughts or dreams, nodded with a smile and led her group from 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDF0XKNXHQ0
the main cavern. Twitch following her and joining his sibling to whom 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAZopuFagK
David waved. Turning around he came face to face with Nook.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhEPMQI7wA
"I'm off duty now, got some guys looking for a game. You're in?"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeDIqvM5AT
Nook was an interesting 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VpHifz0am
case, while he was definitely Gob's man he didn't seem to be as 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2kDjfN3fp
disciplined as the other soldiers. He was also one of the few soldiers 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2kA8ECsLd
who was friendly with David instead of following Gob's lead and hating 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwu0nLLMK4
his guts. So they decided to have a card game here and there while 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQMYkoVMeX
inviting other people, a card game in which David lost more often than 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsTxeQdrfz
not. While David hated losing in cards it was a good method of making 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoFtPQBlqz
friends and getting to know people. As well as a guarantee to keep 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG08lOvkQ9
getting invited as long as you lost smart and graciously accepted it.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrA2bDFpCm
"Aye, why not Nook. Maybe I'll clean house this time."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYf3vs0yvx
Nook grinned a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHj1HUCZf7K
predator's smile and led David towards a secluded table. While gambling 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEXUNfsk9c
wasn't banned or anything, as long as you were off duty, it was frowned 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsJCk2VbWw
upon by Gob. That and most rebels having limited resources. Having only 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNw83nRv1m9
their clothes and weapons stolen from the empire or brought on their 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZydeHhsDWS
backs.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeTlcJGb17
Thus any card games were598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGS0PmgvXd
just that, games to pass the time. At least until David proposed to bet598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWfJDM7nEv
their rations. Everyone received the basic rations few times per day 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVwft37EHo
and it was up to them how much of that they ate. It was barely enough to598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2iGrT0Q2Y
feed a healthy adult. As they have been on this isle for a while it was598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc0rMWiGf1
harder to find fresh animals to hunt every day. A lot of the rebels 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrcj8moZkD
were opposed to that idea as they'd loose on the last bits of food they 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqORKYflKN
did have.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeX5Ony0BM
Some did think it was a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o3Az8C8c9
brilliant idea and David was sitting down with a few of them right now. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRx3qRVBeIt
Nook, he was confident in his card abilities. Apparently before joining 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUr6ajOutpE
the rebellion he was a militiaman in his village and gambled a lot. As 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUzxmRXDRW
far as David could see he was more lucky than actually good. Old 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hYqRe9h4f
toothless Stevie, he joked that if he did lose his rations that it would598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjMWxP6VFE
save his last teeth. He also wasn't afraid to bet most of his rations 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJ748n8shv
scaring the other players into folding, a good bluffer. Finally there 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iRzVTBNJj
was Tiruk, a huge man who definitely needed more rations just to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWv29yFmoE
survive. It surprised David anyone could keep that weight with tight the598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GaymYTDAp
food has been.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91ixOpfpM6
They were the four main 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6i20Ndia6V
players who usually joined the gambling games. Sometimes others joined 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0L1D6hLDyz
but they usually stopped after going hungry for a day or two as they 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQZ7tYgCaZ
lost their rations. These four though didn't give up after losing, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zftvKByaN
because they knew that their chances of a feast were just around the 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM2vozCLex
corner. That fact created a sense of comradeship between the players. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJqg74E2wO
Even if they were playing against each other they understood the risks 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCbMAlCQx2
and accepted them.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqR6wwQNXT
"''Ello boys." David 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHozkpgUsiI
said sitting down at the table with Nook. There were nods all around the598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB3mZBCdPM
table and the cards were dealt. They were playing a card game called 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrbdMsvoK6
match 'n go. Most of the rebels had not heard of the game or at least 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvL3cyr2Ka5
knew it under a different name but most of them caught on fast, it was 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWaGT09Dbg
often just played for fun. But the best games came from betting. As the 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpFD6kTxGY
risks went higher you tried to fool your opponent into thinking that you598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOJIMkbPQD
had the match or a higher card. David loved risk games like that, he 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMDvROiRIy
loved reading the other player emotions and using it against them or at 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmvXivjK2K
least for his own benefit. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXl5TmXWSMo
Nook was the first to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9srJ9dby18
play. "I'm betting half of my rations on this. Gots a good deck, that I 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26FPyhAL9A
do." David could see the plastered smile on his face. At this point 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0uMicdrQt
David could tell fake between real in a heartbeat. Nook was bluffing.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PKqT3gLaN
"Alright, I'll call that." David answered.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLwFLOHW3o
Tiruk, in answer, just 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUK0rvfuUEg
shook his head and folded. He wasn't risking it. Stevenson with his 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt24YjOC6S
gaped smile called it as well and cackled a bit.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJzO60MzSn
Next card revealed. A 3 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0C4RfmpY5h
for Davids two threes. He'd have to fold that game, too high chance of 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2etGwgp9yv
winning. So it went on and on, rations were won and lost. David won a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0K441kXG5
few games but then he bet everything and lost on purpose, made Stevie a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIjcN6DXk2
very happy, old, man.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLgH3nBJ9S
Since David didn't have 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVXr92EPtf
anything to bet with anymore he made his excuses and left the table. He 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4EU4DB8pj
took a look around for Gob and didn't see him anywhere so decided it 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgHTw4NyFk
would be safe to take a walk.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbEKcpKEGs
Another thing he took to598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKM8pmu8Yn
doing over the past two weeks was exploring, finding any secret spaces 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84s01O5ArC
where he might hide. The rebels themselves only found one possible 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZr59xTUUdB
emergency exit while David found three. Of course the other two exits 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qskRUPPiS
only were wide enough for one person to pass through at a time. So it 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQ0WQm6X4h
could be that they just didn't consider them as such.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdJlY8VxnD
He also found various 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIhh9gqqYp
hiding spots, not only for him but for items he stole. Weapons, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKNDTD4gvk
ammunition, food and the like. If only a small amount disappeared at a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YJTv62OAt
time no one really noticed and attributed it to absentmindedness. Though598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJGmb4Ah2T
David believed Gob was getting suspicious so he would need to start 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CNUwCnLHV
being more careful.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jMoVTx3qO
The caves themselves 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfsRwcCDoC
seemed to go through the whole isle, David didn't believe he explored 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGskUWXCvgB
even half of it. Gob tried to send a few soldiers every day to explore 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoxV0MgJVF
further into the caves, but many were afraid of the dark, believing 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGb4bD0CGW
various beasts were residing in them. Refusing to go inside without Gob 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsx9I6Pgj3
and since Gob was usually busy either creating or being out on patrols 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdqZN8AxwU
himself that limited their exploring time.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7rb2Hf0Vt
That let David offer his598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBKD3qAH5N
services as an explorer. He would explore the further caves and would 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5n4epAWlsN
report on any worrying circumstances. Gob was reluctant to let him go 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VLYKgzQFP
but was convinced by Francesca that it would be a grand idea as it would598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtkwaOAed8
free more people for patrols and other duties.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsZKzzIURa
This time though he had a598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIN4UvQJUl
destination in mind. A bit further into one of the pathways, about an 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEtyMdks8Q
hour from the main cavern, there was a small pathway where a thin person598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJSKSqIkGG
could barely fit. Following that pathway, if you could survive the 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XHCDOzhOM
feeling of getting crushed by the walls, was a pool. David was surprised598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFk9TzQZ2qe
when he found and astonished when he discovered the water was hot. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9ZJDaSI1s
That's where he was 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwG7vgCYH5t
going now; he needed a clear head for Francesca's meeting. No matter how598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsBRu0File
she acted she was a noble, they always sought the best deals for 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTS44wUflQ
themselves, always trying to ledge a situation in their favour. David 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e1kIcBT7k
would need to be on his toes. Or maybe he just wanted to actually relax 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaZH2eCAGb
without anyone screaming or crying, he didn't decide which one sounded 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdReOz57SV
better in his mind.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQgBKtDnor
Thus grabbing a torch as598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bVaXq6nuw
many of the pathways further down weren't lit, he began his, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgFCpmF9S4
uneventful, journey. Luckily he reached his destination in a timely 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29a5IgyDTq
manner, though he hated going through that cramped space. He gave a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0nr7K5pdN
satisfied sigh as he sat down in the pool, his muscles losing the 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHN2glzgzEb
tension he gathered over the past few weeks, the water reached up to his598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9T4mb98N7
chest and he dunked his head under the water finally enjoying a proper 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnleGEHn0Y3
clean. He was careful to keep track of time but other than that he let 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5opWSGCoKZ
his mind wander and just blanked out. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5J0vKGJV0
Before he even noticed, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvd8CxgsVj
to David's disappointment, it was time to leave. He was also saddened by598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssns0aqgEt
the fact that the water ended up a bit darker after his bath, a way to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xfsbaI0AR
hit a guys confidence. With a sad sigh he put on his dirty and worn out 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC6jWgQgxT
clothes and went back to the main cavern to the sound of activity and 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Urlu78HBM
the smell of unwashed masses.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIavOrjoFok
It did seem that David 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKB5nJ0YRj
came back just in time as people were gathered near the cooking pots to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ub3h2vodE
gather their rations. David did the same and then found Stevie, sitting 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31b6pbu9H0
with some other older rebels, and gave him his rations. Stevie nodded 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUOWSAUv3d
and had a sparkle in his eye. "Maybe nexsht time you can save me 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEmYipxCSB
teethsh." And he cackled at his joke. David managed a weak laugh that 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RY3TXQHdB
seemed to satisfy Stevie.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfZSe5q03h
"Don't keep Francesca 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97f8yk3CPO
waiting." Came a gruff voice from behind. David tried to hide his 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmiLef7IcI
annoyance at the fact that Gob managed to sneak up on him and scare him.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3C9Ga30Xh
Some people just had no sense of proper manners.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyuvkPKYjX
"Oh I wouldn't dare." 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDe9WLGHLyf
He gave a mock bow which seemed to infuriate Gob more. "I was just out 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuVolNQRlf
exploring, nothing to report so far, sir Gob." Gob just grunted and 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1X8Yh0DSW
walked away. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRguK9HMGvD
David smiled and waved 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YcynBPSft
after him, the guy really needed to unwind. With nothing else to do but 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxstfMe8yz
shrug at that thought David went towards Francesca's room. Even if 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIfw47T6F2
Francesca did pretend to be all for equality and the like she still had 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUKlzaj5KY
her personal quarters, such as they were, as well as an actual bed, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZCTNwAXFv
table, chairs. They were shoddy work at best, crafted quickly by some of598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgGxIu4Cyl
the rebels, but they were more than anything any other rebel had. David598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbWnN7l4J4
was impressed by how she had more and yet most still perceived her as 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9gKkDKOYy
the paragon of virtue.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXDbhTmxgB
Her room, as per usual, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9l7q8KAv0
was guarded. But the guard waved him on with a smile. David saw it as a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRpMldh6Zl
pointless precaution anyway, but what could you do. Francesca herself 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAPac5aTq5
was already seated, with a torch in the middle of the table, a pale 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAznBmPBUC7
imitation of a candle. One thing the rebels had a lot of were torches, 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcAmqxwfwA
to light up all caverns and pathways. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNQeCoX04F
"Oh, David! Please sit" she gestured towards the second chair.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwrgzxWYdP
David sat down with a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8O5oOo03L
nod and smile. They weren't eating anything extravagant, just what the 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9nf59wjno
rest were. Dried meat, nuts, sometimes if they were lucky they could 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhh5h4oQKOn
even get rabbit or vegetable soup, but that more of a luxury nowadays. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94mH6rXoIm
This time it was some dried meat of unknown origin and some water found 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72K3pzXsTW
in a stream. Delicious.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDbPtyk7rT
"So pleasantries first or business first?"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSHUTd4kqe
"I found that going straight to business can ruin a healthy appetite."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJAyrXXh6n
Francesca nodded and 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuqMirSAVF
began to cut her meat with her wooden utensils. While David had similar 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTu8hRtgrr
equipment he didn't really find much use of them and found it better to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGg36zT1fEX
eat with his own hands. Made it faster and when you're under cannon fire598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWBxedY8Mq
fast eating was paramount.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86U6RGI6N1
As expected David 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhExKr8byL
finished his portion first and ended up waiting for Francesca to finish 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHJ2faYJWr
hers, which took another 5 or 10 minutes. The girl was certainly a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqW2A6u6xm
deliberate eater.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZsc5CGPho
"So on to business." She598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1E3eBMDKn
paused making sure David was ready, once he nodded she continued. "Tell598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLa40IbHr7
me, do you know who actually hired your services?"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1T205BdP3
"No idea, captain was usually tight lipped about our clients. I just always assumed it was one of you guys."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6r0Vny12OX
"In a way. It's someone 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBedpFLwfq
who's...interested in our cause. One of Gob's friends. He is able to get598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBTEnWFSV2
in and out of the isles without arousing too much suspicion."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32wS86KoLJ
"Can't imagine you can tell me who it is?"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71BMhcGZJM
"It's not for me to tell sadly, Gob was adamant that it's best kept as secret." Francesca smiled apologetically "apologies"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXe03FuI0Vx
David waved his hand in a playful manner. "No worries, I'm surprised you're telling me any of this in the first place."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsK0ZVt3dHz
"Well, there is a 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccoxdCG29M
reason. Since the weapons we got previously are in the Empire's hands 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPcgA46gEa
and we can't fight them for it." Putting it lightly the rebels never 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7IhhQgPiw
really fought the empire in a straight on fight. Mostly raids and 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnx9yvDnyLo
recruiting villagers with their possessions. Easy pickings. "Gob got in 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJka4bLJ7dn
touch with his friend again and luckily we managed to set up a meeting 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVA084fsGAI
in a few days the edge of a different isle.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkou2mfMD1i
"We will also be moving 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDWwsX7OfF
our base" she continued, sadly. "I can't keep us here with the danger 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAY3wpfNao7
increasing, so we will move slowly, to an isle we were based in before 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaIIgrDbfG
so some will know where to go."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OyW7nQdWk
"That's good, why did 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKnO0X67oL
you want to keep us here for this long anyway?" While he was annoyed at 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjzGwV1kNS
hearing that question every time he went on patrols, he couldn't deny he598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgTJ1imHbo
was interested in the answer.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2TTBK4zlt
"It...It has to do with one of The Five. I can't reveal more in fear that it might interfere with your objective. "598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2uFwaxIj8
David nodded, not a full598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWiLFnuDg0
answer he wanted but to push might create a rift between them. Religion598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgzenevd1E
was pretty important to Francesca "Don't worry; you don't have to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0eTdJovoP
reveal anything you don't want want to." He said in a soothing tone598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwChEX4qgKI
"Thank you." She said 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnzhgG536F
gratefully. "Where was I? Oh, yes. We'll have groups with specified 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfk9iHNKqW
leaders going back to that previous isle, they'll lead them and we'll 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CA8c3Fo8O
regroup at a specified point."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgPCeR46Zw
"How will you get 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtdF1Y1DGz
everyone over to the next isle?" Isles were divided by cracks, and while598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4azCdnswnj
some you could jump over, others were so wide you could fit a full 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBELGOfbrOj
city.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMi1X2XCc4
"We have small sky 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWaK5Ztw1J
boats. Some of the groups will use it...Others...Others will need to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7xnsiFURH
find their own way" she said in bitter tones. "I don't like that, we're 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YluH7PGqu
abandoning my people. But Gob said it's too dangerous traveling in a big598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAPSgwxSLN
group."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD02KFCvPIo
"You're a good leader on your own. You should trust your own instincts." Ah finally! An opportunity to create that rift598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSf0bmTwdA
She gave him a sad smile598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKlzTMzeAQ
in response. "Thank you, but I do not a good head for tactics or 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmJ3pFIUWs
military matters. I've had some education on it, but Gob is much better 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKinvN3FA5H
at it." David still wasn't sure just what Gob did before the rebellion. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iqDrBg3N1
Francesca stated that the past did not matter and as long as they were 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwkqQli7bC
willing to fight for the rebellions ideals they would be allowed to keep598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4tcPxokmT
their past in the past.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7WIuNh6jh
"Now then, back to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfKz5L85Gw
business." She said more cheerily. "Myself and Gob will be meeting that 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1eUuOloVf
person in a few days. We will have guards but I'd also like for you to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpAvaF8gE4
come. You're well-traveled and met many people; your advice would be 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAHpTVXO0q
valuable, especially since we'll only be bartering for them."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJUcimErDm
"You'll have it. I'm 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡua9bg3R7uK
more than happy to join you." While he wasn't looking forward to 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg928OUkS7
sleeping with all the insects again, it might help his back to not sleep598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTA4IY49Tfj
on a rock hard surface.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsftbEO1Se
"Perfect! I'll let Gob know and convince him as well." She laughed sheepishly. "I didn't really confirm this with him you see."598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tNRQr4O3o
"Oh, the guy loves me. It'll be easy." Francesca smiled at that, she knew just how much Gob hated David.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy10DC5LHy
A lull in the conversation and then a question David was dreading "Did you have any more visions? From the one who chose you?"598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJ7DLdirsn
"Sadly no, I'm as 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6rHUfy3u1
clueless as when I was born." This wasn't exactly true. He knew he had 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdfCWD2Exx
to find something, and suspected Francesca was after it as well he 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqmC9oIFtS
suspected it was on this isle. Francesca seemed to know more, but she 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEzvQsFnza
wasn't willing to reveal it. She might hide it under lofty ideals, but 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzbMWVEGpC
she was concealing the truth from both David and the rebels.598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0zy1yjOux
"Do not worry, I am 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuFTt9eU1k
su..." before she could continue their whole world rocked. As explosions598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwyV5gKDfE
rang from outside and rubble started falling all around them., hitting 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWtQ32WWpx
the table and dislodging the torch, casting ominous shadows on the walls598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDREeJNfMF
"Wha..." before David could finish his thought a very worried Gob barged in. 598Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZHs50LVqp
"We're under attack, they found us."
