The Village Chief presented the fruits, scrutinizing Seig and Evadne's reactions. "Are these the fruits you are talking about?" he asked.
Seig's initial scepticism melted into a furrowed brow. He was on the verge of dismissing the idea that such a valuable fruit could originate from this place, but his words halted as he scrutinized the fruits in the Village Chief's hands.
"Captain," Evadne interjected, her tone tinged with disbelief.
She followed Seig's gaze, noting his intense scrutiny of the fruits before returning her attention to them.
Seig turned his focus back to the Village Chief. "Where did you get these fruits?" he demanded, his gaze piercing.
Though a suspicion had begun to form in his mind, he was reluctant to entertain it.
The Village Chief scoffed at Seig's question. "These are the Kalna fruit and the Lipry fruit, grown here in my village," he responded.
