As the wagon approached the gates of the village the villagers rushed to open the doors. Darus, Giza and Gilie took Steve and Alex to their base of operations where two others waited.
???: Darus, Giza, Gilie, you're back!
???: Who's the new guy?
Giza: His name is Steve. His friend's name is Alex. She needs a little medical attention.
???: I'm on it. *approaches a table* Put her here Gil.
Gilie: *puts Alex on the table*
???: By the way, name is Erin. That's my brother Erik. *shakes Steve's hand*
Steve: It's nice to meet you. Do you think she'll be okay?
Erik: Absolutely. *takes arrow and throws it away* She should be as good as new in a few moments. For now she just needs a little rest.
As the group bantered for a bit a dark haired man with chain mail ran through the entrance.
Darus: Leopold? What are you doing here?
Leopold: Our village *huff* it's *huff* under *huff* attack.
Darus: Come on everyone, let's get going.
Steve: I'll come with you.
Darus: You sure you can handle it?
Steve: Yes.
Darus: Then grab a weapon and come along.
Darus, Gilie, Giza and Steve hopped on their horses and rode out of the village to the next.
Next chapter, we enter the village of Thawne.
