With Rockham in trouble, Link couldn't stay indoors anymore. He could feel that this was an opportunity!
After thinking, Link took out his finished magic sword. Placing it in the sheath, he ordered, "Stay here and don't open the door for strangers."
"I know. We're not kids," Riel answered.
Taking the sword, Link left the house and jogged to Rockham.
When he got close, he saw Rockham lying on a stretcher. He was covered in blood. There was a bloody hole below his liver. The bleeding had mostly been stopped blood was still seeping out slowly.
Rockham was being taken to the round tower by two slaves. When he saw Link, a weak smile appeared on his pale face. "Heh," he laughed at himself. "I'm old now and got stabbed by that bastard without realizing."
As far as Link knew, there were no priests or healing spells in this world. If Rockham's wound wasn't treated properly, it could be fatal.
