Ruggah did not answer straight away. He looked at his team, as if he wanted to be sure that they wanted him to tell their story to me, and he must have gotten an affirmation as he turned towards me and said, "The first four weeks do not matter, even though we were facing enemies ten times our number, we were the best, and they would need a hundred times more bodies to shake us from our foundation… our loss came from within."
He touched his empty eye socket. "We had all denied the touch of the Great Fitting, but the enemy has a way of getting inside your head. They do not need to breach your walls; they only need to reach one person and turn them, and that person turns the one beside them, and so on. We had expected this, but we did not expect the one who fell to its temptation."
"Who turned?"
