"Ok, the warehouse and Lena's team secrecy is something, but it doesn't explain the weird orders you were mentioning."
"It is," Aaron said. "Because the weird orders involve not using some of the materials I know for a fact are there."
It was weird not to use materials, but if Martin was really pooling resources for Lena and the others, then it made sense, and it was exactly what Reidar told him.
"It would make sense if we talked about items and weapons, not crafting materials and wood," Aaron replied.
That was new. "In that case, then yes. Whatever Martin is doing is pretty weird."
Aaron nodded.
"The others haven't put it together. The only reason I have is that I'm close enough to see things vanish, and because I know what's not coming through the gate. Besides, ask yourself, why keep me out of the warehouse if there's nothing to hide?"
