Within the tribe Keigra, in the bounds of the shard court, Govo of the Ripar tribe who stood in the hall was in disbelief in seeing Jagami of the Graundar tribe sitting in a room and talking to a Keigra woman wearing a white headband and a robe who was also sitting on a chair.
"Jagami...?" Govo said within.
"How are they?" Jagami asked the woman.
"They are doing fine so far, lady Jagami." The Keigra woman answered, "If i may, the chief of your tribe, chief Miza has requested your presence. She would like to learn your whereabouts and how you weren't taken in with the others."
"Understood. As for the minors, i will make sure they are compensated for their loss. Though i know money nor any of what i will offer can bring back the lost lives but to look them in the eye is just..."
Jagami bent her head down and stared at her clenched fists.
"Let me when they are awake. I'd like to see them face to face." Jagami said to the woman as she rasied her head.
The woman nodded in response and Jagami stood from her seat and walked away. As Jagami walked towards the door, she took notice of Govo staring in disbelief.
"Govo?" Jagami said in confusion.
Minutes later Govo and Jagami were walking while talking with each other.
"So you fought all of that?" Govo asked.
"Yes." Jagami answered.
"I am not really supposed to be surprised but you actually fought him again and won?" Govo asked.
"I learnt from my mistakes. I just wish i could have saved them." Jagami said as she bent her head down, "They were relying on me and i let them down... I let them die."
"You can't save everyone." Govo said as he caught sight of a woman sobbing, "No matter how hard you try, there are some that will be beyond your control."
"Is it true? That our oppressors have returned and they were aiding the hivelings?" Jagami asked.
"They aided, alright. Not just them but the traitors in Agaroth, too." Govo answered.
"Traitors?" Jagami asked.
"You have no idea. The death count is something that has never happened before in Agaroth. Minors from different tribes... Dead." Govo said as he clenched his fist hard, "Adults from major tribes... Killed. Our mates taken away and made to play a sick game and i'm not sure how many of them will come out alive.
I am supposed to count myself lucky but how can I? I just wish i could do something."
"Chief Miza wants to see me. She wants to learn about my encounter with the hivelings." Jagami said.
"She also requested my presence." Govo said, "She wants to learn how i escaped being taken to the game and what Pit and i learnt, and trust me, there is a lot."
The two kept quiet for some time until Govo spoke again.
"Do you think he will recover?" Govo asked.
"He is a tough dough. He definitely will." Jagami answered.
"With what you told me, i never imagined you would grow this much." Govo said, "You really proved you are Iminko and Jian's daughter."
"I am their daughter but that isn't enough to define me." Jagami replied.
Govo stared at Jagami with a raised brow for a while and turned his face away.
