"What's the worst you can get me involved in?" Karyk asked the man, who was acting awfully cautious.
He didn't understand what could be the reason for Aliac to be so serious. Just what could threaten the man so much that he had to stay in the Central World for so long.
From Karyk's point of view, it appeared less like he was hiding from something, and more like something else entirely.
"You'll find out soon enough..." Aliac replied as he turned and walked away, feeling that it still wasn't the time to tell Karyk. He still had to observe the man a little more, because this thing was that important.
Aliac had just started leaving when he found Karyk appearing before him, blocking his path.
"Now that you've made me intrigued, I can't let you leave without understanding the situation," he told Aliac. "As for me getting involved in things, I'll be the judge of that after hearing everything."
