Sebastian POV
"I know someone who may be able to help us get a step ahead of Ranrok," Ciri says as she studies the second piece of the triptych.
After our time in Feldcroft, I managed to find the first location in the triptych. And now, we've just traversed through an entire goblin-infested mine to get our hands on yet another frail piece of tapestry.
I raise my eyebrow in suspicion. "And who is that, exactly?"
She turns to me, biting her lip in hesitation. "He's... close to the situation. I'd rather not divulge too much information about him just yet."
It can't be.
"It's another goblin, isn't it?" I spat, anger rising in my voice. How could she? How dare she?
"He's friendly and wants no part in Ranrok's fight. Not all goblins-"
"Not all goblins what? Have you forgotten what they've done to my sister? What we saw them do in Feldcroft?"
She frowns. "No, Sebastian, I haven't. If you would just listen to me-"
"Why would I listen to someone so ignorant?" I snap. I can't seem to control the rage that's bursting through my veins.
She pauses for a moment. "I never thought you to be so cruel," she says softly, almost as a whisper.
As she turns on her heel to walk away, she looks back at me one last time. Her voice begins to break as if she's on the verge of tears.
"Stay away from me, Sallow. I'm done."
