Chapter 84 - Spirit Tree

Lia lead Sael along the tunnels having half expected him to attack her when she turned her back on him.  It had been a test and a gamble but she couldn't think of any other way to test the strange invader's intent.  When he didn't attack her she let go of a breath she didn't even realize she was holding.  Out of the corner of her eye, she watched him limp and stumble after her. She had been running through the tunnels for a considerable part of the battle.  While she didn't plan on taking him all the way to the Spirit Tree, yet.  She needed to get him to one of the slave resting stations, where they could recuperate and she hoped to get more information out of the man.
