Chereads / Horses in the Falcon / Chapter 167 - 168

Chapter 167 - 168

The following morning, you leave your quarters to find a number of your tribespeople clustered around one of the houses in the center of the village, deep in conversation with Drazha and Kendra. As you draw closer, you hear a few snatches of conversation: "…did they go?", "…remember there even being anyone here…", "I didn't hear anything…."

"Basileios," says Drazha as you reach the group. "Something strange is going on. Some of our people claim that a number of our warriors were lodged in this house last night, and that now they have vanished without a trace. I confess, I have no memory of seeing any people in this house."

"Nor I," adds Kendra. "To my knowledge, this house has stood empty for some time."

One of the nearby tribespeople has been waiting for her turn to speak. "Not so," she says. "Some of my friends were quartered here. Dobruk, Grenna, and others. If they're not here, then where are they?"
