The sun has just appeared on the horizon, today I have dark circles under my eyes, wesaid we would take turns to watch, in the end I was left all alone.
"Mmmm... now we should start our meeting to decide our future actions!" with a beaming smile Alice announced.
"Okay, I completely agree, first I'd like to condemn your lack of discipline in relieving me from my watch post!"
" I too would like to condemn the lack of medical treatment, miss!"
"All of that dosen't matter, you were supposed to wake me after two hours" She tell me before turning to Lixk "and you were so happy snoring on the ground, that I would have felt bad if you woke from my treatment"
"I tried to wake you and you kicked me!"
"You could at least tried to put a blanket on me!"
It was early in the morning, the sun has just risen and the morning dew still lingered, despite this, Lixk and I were trying to fight a lost battle with the sole purpose of bringing down the current leader by voicing our complaints which were completely ignored.
"I don't care, both of you are supposed to be men and yet you're crying all over the place and making me uncomfortable over such minor details, enough!"
With that, our united front was brought to an end.
"Now that we have cleared that, Lumiere, I thought that this Tower was all clear apart from us, was that a lie?"
Giving me a look to be scared of she cut directly to the matter at hand, our previous mood turned tense, Lixk stopped complaining and pouted at being ignored.
" Suppousedly it was that way, for almost a year I have scrounged every book available in the castle, even the private library of the Chief and made numerous excursions in the Tunnel, yet I have never heard or seen any kind of life other than the wild in here."
" The attack from yesterday by the boars is irrelevant" Alice said to put an end to Lixk who was about to complain again, because his momentum was lost he got bored and decided to start polishing his sword and left. "I'm deeply worried of the beast that tackled you and the archer."
" I know, I couldn't see it clearly from the shock, my guess is that it's a animal, shorter than me and agile, it fled as quickly as it attacked."
"I alone could see that, what I'm asking is if you felt anything abnormal?"
"Mmmm... I don't quite know what you mean by abnormal, but apart from the fact that it tackled me not really, I didn't feel anything, the other party fled, right? Did you get to see who it was?" I didn't knew how much she had developed her tracking skills.
" No, my arrow pierced him but it couldn't cause a major injure, I found some blood and gave chase but I lost it in the end. Anyhow, I believe that this was just some kind of approach to asses our abilities"
