569 The Truth Forced Out

The sun was setting hours after the departure of the exploration group and Elder Sud was enjoying a leisurely bath. He was needless to say rather glad to be put in charge of something so simple and safe.

It was then that he heard the sound of hurried footsteps.

"Sudryal!" A water mage shouted causing Sud to put on a slight grimace. He was still not used to being called so informally.

"What is it?" Sud asked the agitated water mage calmly.

"Alolvi and a few others have returned injured!" Hearing this news, however, Sudryal had to put aside any silly thoughts.

"What happened? Take me to Ed" Sud said as he exited the calming bath. The water mage nodded and led Sud outside the room. They were now traversing what was called the main hall of the Bloodhaven refuge base.
