It was midnight hour. Dustfinger could not sleep after the horrific talks. He could hear the sounds of barred owls, squirrels and of course shooting practice ritual of stupid guards firing their guns at poor cats on the front porch.
Stars were shining bright all over the Capricon's Village. Dustfinger kept thinking if Lisa's saying had an ounce of truth about another world. How could she believe a mute woman he thought for a second.
There was a knock on the door. It was as if some cat's paw touched it, not hear able. Dustfinger, however, heard it because he was alone laying on the bed and Gwin was not snoring. Dustfinger opened the door. Creakily, Two woman entered through the wooden door. Resa was walking right behind Lisa as they both entered the room.
"What are you doing at this time, Weren't we supposed to meet tomorrow night?" called out Dustfinger.
"We are extremely sorry, sire. But we had to do, We can't meet tomorrow. I'll tell you everything tonight." breathed Lisa. Dustfinger was still wandering into Resa's eyes and nodded to lisa.
"Well, Alright then. Here we go" said Lisa before clearing her throat.
"Resa claimed that we are in a book and this book is read by somebody in the other world. It could be anyone and anywhere in that other world where Resa actually belongs."
"This world is a book that is read by anyone from other world? How rubbish." wrinkled Dustfinger.
"Yes! She also claims that there are some readers on that world that could read book and the things inside the book will appear onto the world or will disappear automatically without their consent. It is as crazy as it sounds, but it is the truth. Resa says that she is here because her husband read her here by accident and now she wants to go back. She says that Capricon knew all about this and there is no way he would want her to leave her at any cost!
There are rumors that there are readers in this world too, Isn't it Dustfinger? Wonder if they are real too. If that is real we could send Resa back to the world she belong and I'll get freedom from these people and you too Dustfinger!"
"Me too?"
"I'm happy with these people, They don't seem to be dangerous, or crazy. Okay, a little bit, but not that much as of another world?!" argued Dustfinger.
"No Dustfinger, You are not safe. There is this one thing that they are will execute on you! No one still knows what is that about and I assure you that you wouldn't want any piece of that.
Dustfinger was assured quickly as he knew that he was not being treated as he was supposed to. He was mature enough to differentiate between being a captive, and a freeman. He was not allowed to go out. The doors of his rooms were closed automatically from outside. He was not allowed to talk to anyone.
"Alright, How are we gonna escape from these brutally mean fellas, eh?" Dustfinger still thought it as funny to believe in a new world. But he knew that Resa's face was something different as compared to the people in this world.
Resa tresses of silky blonde hair were fit neatly into a stunning chignon. Her deep-set blue eyes looked at you like a puppy dog. The girl had a pixie-like nose that dropped daintily down from its peak. Her Cupid's-bow red lips surrounded her small mouth with perfect alabaster teeth. Dimples were pressed under Resa's high cheekbones. Her soft hands with long fingers terminated in painted, polished mauve nails. She stood at high and had a voluptuous figure that poured into a nice hourglass.
"I got setup. I know the getaway place from the hills behind this village. Capricon didn't put any guards there because he thinks that the place is deserted and ghostly. Basta is too scared to even visit there because of his superstitions. We will leave from there and then will figure out to meet a reader, which I somewhat know of that could make Resa go back to her world with her husband and her little daughter that might be in her teens for all we can say."
By the last word, Both ladies stood up and walked out of the room. Dustfinger was alone again with his little Marten not snoring beside him. He was still confused but it was making him feel good about thinking that he was about to run away from this cruel place. After all, he did not like any bit of this place so far!
