399 Him Or Her

The rest of the things that happened between Anne and Wilder, Richard didn't know. But as the other warriors chased after them that evening, Richard followed too. He ran with all his might.

Even though he had lived in this town for over 3 years, he didn't know much about this area of the woods because Wilder had forbidden him from following Anne. So he was just as clueless as the other guards, who didn't know exactly where he was taking her. 

However, something told him that Wilder would not take her far from there because he knew Wilder. He would want her to return, especially now that she has been injured. 

Fortunately, he was able to find them around a rocky area that had rocks big enough for a person to lean on. 

Richard didn't approach. He couldn't.
