Vacuse did remember.
She said somehow that added even more to her suspicions. Smiling Slave told Vacuse he should give her half of his food and she would tell him how they could escape.
Of course, Vacuse did not believe her, but when night came around, he gave her a quarter of his food. And every night after that.
Vacuse gave her a curious look, but he didn't say anything, he just tilted his head to the side.
She snorted. "You don't remember? So why do you think you have been giving me part of your food all this while? Ahahehehe! Well, I'll tell you. The deal was that I would tell you how we can escape from here.
"Tonight, we will carry out the plan. You're not the only one who'd be going too. The whole of Eboncrypt is in a celebration mood, they're going to let their guard down. So it's now or never."
'...so it's tonight, eh. Finally, I'm getting bored out of my mind just washing bodies!..'
