Jedi and Emerson Cly made their way towards the Circle's village.
'So who is this girl? Do you know her?' Jedi asked Emerson.
'I know her,' Emerson responded.
'What's her name?' Jedi asked when he didn't offer any information.
'Liat. Liat Axton. She saw an execution. They won't let her live,' Emerson stopped and Jedi turned to him.
'An execution?' he asked, shocked.
'Please help her,' Emerson begged.
'I'll do what I can,' Jedi promised, a slight smile rising to his face.
'Thank you,' Emerson replied. 'Come on, the village is this way.'
They stood in the trees and watched the town.
'What did you mean by 'execution'?' Jedi asked.
Emerson looked away.
'They killed a three-year-old girl simply because she had blue eyes.'
