Flaret Town, a few hours ago
Some time before dusk, several robed people passed through various alleys one by one. Some moved quickly, but most were slow and shaky.
Interestingly, the leading cloaked person would always look back, even jump above them, using the narrow walls to move quickly. At this time, he had taken down a few people following them, and soon they arrived at their destination safe and sound.
"Oh my goodness…" Maria mumbled as she looked at the new 'slaves' that Gian rescued.
They were all wearing cloaks and were invited in. They entered the threshold one by one, shivering either from fear, from the tension, or from the tiredness of the pacing they were subjected to on the way here.
Knowing there were new people, everyone in the house flinched and placed their attention on the newcomers, making them even more scared. After all, their experience so far was that attention like this was never good for them.
