"No, we are not haunters," Daniel answered gazing to Jackson's direction who was standing right next to him.
"If you're not, how do you know about their different kinds? We hired four of them, they use to tell us about dragons fays and the kinds that they have killed, but they couldn't overcome this one, two of them got killed and the remained ones ran away".
They shocked, Dragons! Fays… they are living in their own worlds can't simply enter to earth. These were bunch of lies and they were rooks aimed to empty the pockets.
"There is no dragon trying to kill us nor fays, there are a few kinds that we named them, Cerace, hell-spirit, Imour… unfortunately they were money hungers, and misled you!" Silman gave them the information that their life and money wasted on those rubbish rats!
"Those bastards got 100 silver coins and ran away", James argued, punched his fist on the table.
Sorrow sat on Lora's face, "Oh, my children, we're spending morbid nights, I didn't see it yet, but as Jack said right when the dark begins that monster comes out, drinks up whole blood of victims to the last drops and leaves the body there. First days we used to find animal cadavers, like sheep or cow, but it's been two weeks that we lost six persons then we had sent our notice by a volunteer to Henson legate, but he didn't return. Merchants and smugglers also banded us."
Mohan redden out of rage his head rolled down and clenched his jaw. Arno rested his palm on his shoulder and declared, "calm down, we are all in a same boat".
"Everything went pear-shaped youths, after this occurrence", James sighed and continued while his tone this time got more curious.
"Now tell us, which kind of bale had brought you to our stricken town? You are not similar to other guests."
Tenderness could be read on Everin's sights, "People named us the knights of night! But we are just regular people who aimed to survive, Groan and other places have the same trouble, strange demonic creatures had attacked all in a sudden and left many dead people behind whether there is a kind of them, it won't leave your body and slaves the soul within its hell, the hell-spirit ones." She interjected.
Lora eagerly commented, "So divine court had guided you this way, I feel blessed you are our guardian angels, would you help us? We would pay you."
"No coins accepted, please don't persuade us just warn people and tell them to get prepared and fight back, themselves". Silman answered.
Lorena before entering this town covered her face and wore a dusty-green color burnouse as always to be concealed from any gaze. Removed her hood and peered into her eyes, it was the time to see if these people telling the fact or are magicians. She was able to read sounds of her thoughts and as always heard a repeated one, "Is this girl a human?"
Lora amazed and remained standoffish looking into her rare light green eyes. Her unique beauty, skin color tone belonged to beyond this world more like described fays of fairy tales!
She grabbed Lora's hand. The girl had cold hands, but that touch warmed her heart. "Solicitous of yours no longer can be alive to kill more people we would help you Lora then we have to work on Groan plan", the way she was speaking was like an angelic princess rather than a normal girl and even a simple woman like her could notice that.
"Fine, as we got a new priority, shall we get ready?" Arno smiled and agreed her words.
"Threw away your fears, you must fight yourself, no one will help you, must do it your own whether with or without us", Lorena directed to Jackson.
"You're right, we got abused for being ignorant and coward, I lost my son", he agreed her.
"So are you ready to face demons?" Silman said.
"I will gather every man I can", he nodded.
Daniel got up to check the sky, walked near the window and pulled over the curtain. The sky was clean no cloud just the young moon and dark. "Where did you see that bat the most?" Daniel asked still thoughtfully looking at the sky. The weather was helpful if it was rainy fighting a winged one could slow down their speed.
Jackson strode to him and answered, "Near the mountain sides there is a cave, and I followed the traces. It's coming from that direction", Daniel surprised he was brave, chased after a monster alone and remarking his words carefully, he could barely find a tinge of fear within him and it was a good point, more men like him and Mohan meant more allies.
"We need free sight views to see which side it's going to attack our trap. I saw plains at the beginning of the town we can conceal there and Lorena finish it easily". Silman suggested like it is very simple to get rid of it. Forlorn man turned to him and asked, "Are you sure?"
"No, the last part isn't a good idea, I can't let Lorena face that", Daniel stated.
He didn't have well-groomed sense about involving her in such a case. Letting people know about her divine blessing meant tendering her to Lug's court with his own hand. He couldn't allow it happen before getting strong enough and stepping to battle field as an army.
In the other hand if she sticks out a simple scratch dragon-phoenix would be aware of that and fly over to take her out of hazards. This way Lug will learn about this issue and won't leave them alive. His first hegemony was to keep his distant far from Lug for now. He knew him, but not the others could see who is behind everything.
"To avoid misunderstandings, I'm agreed to trap and the area you mentioned then if it was any necessity we ask my sister's help". Daniel finished the plant.
"He is right we can't force her to risk on her life", Arno rigorously agreed.
Mohan sneered, and whispered near his ear, "Carrying a torch for her mate, huh?"
Arno fleered at that, "You're smart, shows very experienced you are",
He shrugged, "youth era, I can't ignore it".
Lorena rose and paced to door way, "We need to talk Daniel", he followed her steppes outdoor.
As the door got closed behind them she protested, "I can handle this".
"I know my darling brave sister, but it's not about doubting your ability, something that concerned me is letting Lug know about you, these creatures are fast if they take you away then what am I supposed to do? Insouciance bring regret just trust me, a wound won't kill us!" he sneered and grabbed her shoulders and added, "So let's knock it out here and get back in", he insisted.
She frowned, "Mother can't tolerate this and…" she interrupted herself as the thought of afterwards shattered her brain. Daniel nodded and hugged her between his arms.
"Just in necessary situation make furtive actions". They intended to help, but risking on this case could end up everything that they had put efforts on.
