"Is this completely necessary?" Sullivan questioned as he followed Zeke from tree to tree.
"Don't you want to know how it goes?" Zeke replied with a question of his own. "I'm sure you are at least a little curious. Why else would you be here?"
"Honestly if I clean a certain painting one more time I may put my head through it," Sullivan replied, "but I will admit to some curiosity. Obviously this nonesense is preferable to the nonesense going on at the castle. Bottom line, I am just that bored."
"One way or another, you're here," Zeke pointed out. "Now hush or they'll notice us!"
Both turned their attention to Liron and Jemma who were walking together a ways ahead of them. Initially, things had seemed to be going well. Liron had carried Jemma out of the castle, and they had seemed to be enjoying a spirited conversation. Now, things were just... awkward.
