"Whats this," Jack laughed, "aren't you two a little old for childrens stories!" He picked up his sword and rand his thumb down the flat side.
"I have heard the storyteller tell that story, theres no truth in it." Arethin and Jadae looked at him, quiet hurt by what he was saying. Jadae regained herself.
"Well, your just too scared to try and seach for such a thing arn't you!" Arethin smiled at her words.
"What?! Well I have never been so insulted in my life!" The guard protested. The two others laughed.
"Relax," Jadae said, "I was just teasing." Jack sighed before making for the door. He was just about to go through when a bent figure, blind in one eye, stood in his way. Jack took a step back.
"I don't think you should be leaving Mr. Strife," the stroyteller spoke in his errie voice as he made his way into the room.
