"Vader is merciful. You don't need to worry as long as I am here to vouch for you. However, know that if you do something, I won't protect you for any longer." Vinon said, threatening Lua in the same sentence.
"I'm grateful for your help." Lua did a quick bow to demonstrate his sincerity.
I need to fully recover and get back on track. I doubt the Church of the Lord of Secrets would appreciate me being late because I got distracted by a tribe of barbarians… He thought to himself.
Lua knew these people were far from the barbarians he had been told stories of as a child. He had heard that barbarians were uncivilised rabble who would even eat their comrades for religious reasons, but from what Lua could see, that wasn't true at all. Despite their crude clothing and a lack of permanent housing, they were practically identical to those in the continent of Atherim.
