During his days at the Sanctuary, Owen met a herbalist named Anderson.
Aside from his own followers, Anderson was the one he got along with best.
Thus, when Alison arrived, Owen planned to place her under Anderson's care, as the Sanctuary wasn't a place just anyone could join.
If they were to shelter them based solely on their relationship with Owen, it might breed resentment among others.
Owen hurried towards Anderson's place, simultaneously using the Sanctuary's unique transmitting stone to send a message to Bella and the others, asking for their assistance.
He intended to prepare a feast to welcome Alison and her group.
Anderson lived in a vast forest, so overly extensive that hosting a few more people was hardly an issue.
"Owen," a voice called out just as Owen arrived at the Sanctuary's first peak via the teleportation array.
It was Kovacic coming towards him.
Owen greeted him with a smile.
