"Your training is finishing faster than ever?" General Adelman looked astonished when Guren came down early. He had a book in his hand and looked like he was going to the training ground to try out magic or something.
"He's leaving!"
General Adelman was surprised to hear this. He stopped and was about to order some men to check the gate. "Why didn't you tell me about this before?" General Adelman suddenly growled at Guren.
"He asked for permission to leave the fort. He said something about living in a small house near the gate!"
General Adelman stopped moving. He felt he had been well fooled by Guren. He slung the wooden training sword back over his shoulder. "Oh well, I'll ask him about the house later!" General Adelman said carefully. Then he walked slowly to the second floor to clean up.
"You think he ran away, don't you?" Guren guessed.
