CHAPTER 14

“I wish we could stay longer.” James offered his hand out to Jacobe, who took it and shook it, this time.

He smiled, warmly. “I wish you could too. It would be nice to learn more of your society.”

“The offer is still open if you want to come through.”

Jacobe stiffened. He glanced to Alite, the woman in red. Returning his look to James and Willow, he said, “I appreciate the offer, but as I said, I don’t think it is a good idea.”

Willow nodded, taking Jacobe’s hand after James, and shaking it too. “If you change your mind, you’ll need to bring light with you. Our doorway comes out in the dark.”

“The monster that came through into your world. We call it the Griffin. It had moved on from here. A grotesque giant, something mutated from what I do not know. It has only visited here twice in my lifetime, so I doubt that it will trouble you again.”

James nodded. “Thank you,” he said, warmly.

Alite was already dressed to leave the bunker. Dressed in red, her exposed skin painted. She carried her spear, ready. James looked at her, nodding to the door. “Ready?” The woman nodded and led them out into the tunnels.

Jacobe joined them at the door. “Travel well. If you need to return to us, you are welcome here. Just remember to be quiet, and travel during the red day.”

James nodded, turning away and following Alite to the sands at the lake, Willow behind him. She stepped out into the red day, waving them out behind her. “Stay close, and stay low. No speaking.”

James and Willow stayed in behind her and followed, across the sand. She would occasionally make the same ticking, clicking, sounds she had to Older, as if he was still there. Habit, James expected. They climbed the hill to the grasses, James giving the lake one last look back as they did.
