Chapter 4 - chapter four

Rowena sighed and slid a hand down her face in exasperation. "Azyus...." She groaned.

 Nimi looked between the two, confused; "Rowena, do you know him?" Rowena nodded. "He's my cousin Azyus. Azyus, this is Nimi."

 Azyus gave an exaggerated bow. "Pleased to meet your acquaintance." His grin only widened at Nimi's scowl. 

"Now, spill the beans. What did the traveller look like? Is he still in town?" Azyus asked, leaning against a tree and crossing his arms smoothly.

 Nimi scowled harder. "Think again, book-brain. We're not telling you anything, because this is our mystery." 

Azyus's smug smile never wavered. He leaned in closer and said in a sly tone, "You're forgetting something. I heard every word you said, and unless you want the whole town vying after that key and rooting around in your glen... I'm tagging along. Whether you like it or not."
