An era of strife sweeps Hallownest. The six great nations have established their borders, and disputes over control of land are becoming more frequent. The great warlords will not give ground under any circumstances, in a constant fight for supremac...
Captain Yamato's voice rose as he heard what Ghost had in mind. Although on the way to their respective homes they coincided to a certain point, when Ghost took the road to the captain's house he had a very bad feeling. And hey, he had reasons.
—I thought they were thinking about the same thing I was thinking. —
— Ghost-sama, not even Mother Earth herself will understand that. How come you thought I was thinking that... that...? Did you know? Forget it... I can't repeat that. —
—Captain Yamato, I thought it would be best if the Khan stayed with you. Bretta-san will be able to help heal her and aid in her recovery. —
— I understand that but... Mmmm... What trouble have you gotten me into, boy? —
—They can leave me in the cell, if I cause so much inconvenience to them. —Commented the weaver, already tired of hearing the captain's refusal and the shame of being carried by Ghost.
— No. Empress Shuang ordered me to ensure his health. And I will not leave a responsibility half done. The dungeon is damp, and your wound will become infested sooner or later. Furthermore, it does not meet the minimum health conditions. —
— You are too considerate of someone you call an enemy... Did you know? —
—But how can it be so...? —
- It's not a consideration. It is duty. And don't doubt for a second that I will end your life myself if you hurt any of the residents of the Green Path. —

Captain Yamato was going to call the weaver's attention for her rudeness, but Ghost's words were more than forceful, and not at all without reason. The weaver remained silent, fearful, when she looked up and saw Ghost looking at her. His head forward, but his pupils pointing downward. Eyes that showed no trace of doubt at all. She knew then that he was speaking the truth, and she knew that he would be able to do such a thing. For now he swallowed dryly, and remained silent for the rest of the way.
Finally, after the long walk, they arrived at Captain Yamato's home. Although it was not as ostentatious as the villas of high officials and great officers, it was not bad at all. The entrance led to a small guest room, and behind it, a small intermediate patio that connected with the rest of the structures. To the right, the kitchen area, to the left the bathrooms. And in the background, the rooms of the gentlemen and their children. And in the far right corner was the room where Bretta had been residing since she arrived at Sendero Verde.
