“Whose clothes are these, anyway?” asked Majic.

“Ah, they belong to Auntie Laas, she does all the cooking here,” smiled Fiena.

“...Is that right...” muttered Majic, clearly disappointed about something.

The sudden sound of bootsteps outside the door gave way to MacDougal, who entered the room with a scowl on his face. None of his men were with him, he was simply there alone. Fiena seemed to lose a little bit of the spark in her eyes when she saw him.

Just as suddenly as he had appeared, MacDougal opened his mouth and spoke up in an authoritative manner. “Are you not preparing, Fiena?”

“Whatever... Do you mean...?” she replied, voice stilted.

Fiena’s demeanor had completely changed to that of the shrine maiden Majic had met earlier. But it felt as though this was her default defensive stance.

MacDougal narrowed his eyes and barked out another statement. “What we discussed earlier. The promised time draws nearer, understand?”

“...Y-Yes, I do...” nodded Fiena.

MacDougal heaved a great sigh before growling out once more. “You said the same thing yesterday, and the same thing the day before that, and before that again.”

“It’s just...”

Majic could barely hear her, as her voice had shrunk down to a whisper. MacDougal, on the other hand, had heard the girl loud and clear.

“What did you say, girl?” growled the man.

“I said...” she repeated herself, but once again Majic couldn’t make out a single part of what she had said. Majic simply sat there, quiet and fearful, as her shrine maiden façade began to crumble under pressure.

MacDougal took an angered step forwards. “Who protected you when you became lost in this forest half a year ago?”

“I... I didn’t get lost,” snapped Fiena, looking down at her feet before backing away slightly. MacDougal quirked a brow at her sudden, unexpected statement.

“Oh? Then what was it you were doing, hm?” he softly jeered.

“I was searching...” she replied.

“Searching? For what?”

“For... You...” Fiena’s voice was beginning to tremble.

MacDougal expressed legitimate surprise upon hearing that. He piped up once more.

“If that’s the case, then continue following under my guidance.”

Fiena remained silent. MacDougal took another step forwards.

“You are vital to our plans, understand? Without you, this could never have been possible. You have our gratitude for that, I promise...”

He shrugged his shoulders a bit.

“So please respond properly to our gratitude, Fiena. You have that power in you, so use it to aid me.”

“But... That power...” Fiena mumbled quietly.

MacDougal continued talking, caring not for her hesitation.

“Yes, that power in you, Fiena. The power of a Dragon’s Sorcery.”

What...? Majic was confused by this remark; it was all a bit too much for him to wrap his head around. MacDougal continued on even further in the meantime.

“With that power we can find the ‘heart’ of this ‘forest’, it’s something only you’re capable of doing, Fiena.”

“I... It’s just...” Fiena mumbled something, once more out of Majic’s earshot.

MacDougal took yet another step forward and fiercely grabbed at Fiena’s wrist. He spoke up with a scowl on his face. “Don’t you start speaking of things you don’t understand, girl!
