... He gets closer every day, every hour. I mustn't let him spoil my fun! And my worshippers--Oh, how dare they!--are noticing his presence! I must warn the cult leaders, make sure they bow to me and not to him.
The day after chapter 25...
Trace Is anyone tired yet?
Keith If this is a serious matter, I will not rest.
Natani 2 Good words.
Sythe But we might!
Trace Huh?
Sythe, Raine and Flora were falling behind.
Kyle Alright. Let's pause. I'll get a campfire going. Anyone hungry for, uh... *searches pouch* beef and chicken stew?
(synchronized)
Flora Alright!
Sythe Alright?
Raine What an odd combination...
As Kyle prepared the campfire...
Natani 2 Huh, they get along very well- Wait, where's the fox!?
An investigation later, she sits at a ledge facing the fortress (far off in the distance).
Natani 2 What's she doing here?
Laura 2 Not that far away.
Natani 2 What?
Laura 2 The fortress. It's only a few miles away.
Natani 2 Well, that is nice to know where we're going, but you at least tell me what we will face.
Laura 2 In the fortress lies-
Natani 2 An army, I know! But is there more than that?
Laura 2 Yes.
Natani 2 Then tell me, fox!
Laura 2 *pause* *sigh* They'll kill me for this... Marc--with a "c"--and Alistair.
Natani 2 Who are they?
Laura 2 Cult leaders.
Natani 2 But I thought-
Laura 2 Trace is their God--mine too--and Marc and Alistair are the leaders.
Natani 2 Anything about these two?
Laura 2 *pause* *sigh* Marc leads the Dogs and Cats. Kind and gentle, yet demanding and highly worthy as heir.
Natani 2 "Heir?"
Laura 2 Alistair leads the Wolves and Foxes. Strong, bold, rash, simpleminded, and harsh.
Natani 2 But what about Tigers?
Laura 2 For as far anyone knew, there is only one Tiger.
Natani 2 Who?
Laura 2 The one the Lord named "Flora" now.
Natani 2 "Now?"
Laura 2 He was one; He must've gave that form to her. Maybe His powers too.
Natani 2 Trace told me he met her that way.
Laura 2 He said that?
Natani 2 Uh-huh. So then what?
Laura 2 Then...He made her...and surrendered His true form...
Natani 2 Really? Uh, let's get back; Kyle said he's making beef and chicken stew.
Laura 2 W-what is-
Natani 2 Really? Follow me...
At the campfire, everyone enjoyed some soup; Laura shedded a tear or two.
Kyle Is this her first time eating meat?
Laura 2 Th-thank you, my Lord. For your friends. For this food. For...everything...
When everyone fell asleep...
... She defies me! She truly believes the fraud is I! She--and he--must be killed! <Wolf Master, Fox Master!>
Alistair <Yes, my Lord?>
... <Bring me both the fake and the fox. I want them for the sacrifice.>
Alistair <It shall be done. For You only, my Lord...>
... Now he must--and shall--fear me!
In the morning...
Trace gets up and looks out to see the fortress in the distance. Keith noticed his awakening, along with Kyle.
Keith What's wrong?
Kyle Another vision?
Trace ...Alistair is coming...
