It was surprisingly easy to find Will when the empire already collapsed. I shifted to the planet, and then flew around, noticing him eventually. He looked a lot different. Dirty, with a makeshift backpack, he was traveling through a partially ruined district on foot.
When I landed in front of him, he just burst into laughter.
- You made it! Oh, all the gods that do or don't exist! - he shouted, dropping his equipment, and rushing to give me a hug. - I was so damn worried when all those days passed, and you didn't show back! I started thinking the worst happened, and soon there will be an army of guardians going after me!
- Yeah - I tried to smile, as I pulled him off me. - Let's talk about this when we pick up the rest...
I said mysteriously, picking up his curiosity.
- Okay - he said slowly.
