"Let's head to the human village to resupply then to the forest."

Aki looked disgruntled before nodding, while Rico mearly smiled.

"Alright it's settled then. Bring the prince out of his stupor, we really need to go now."

Lamas agreed and quickly picked up the prince and ran with the others.

They could all hear the angry shouts of townsmen and soldiers looking for them.

An hour after running, Lamas stumpled while carrying Luca.

"Maybe we should stop soon?" Rico questioned.

Aki roled his eyes before lifting one of his robed arms and chanting what seemed to be a long gibberish filled speech to himself.

Rico pulled out a cloth and unholstered his flintlock and leaned on a tree, cleaning his firearm.

Lamas paid no attention to the two and walked over the dirt road to a rock.

Following which he placed the prince onto and asked about his wellbeing.

"Sir, are you alright?"

Luca broke out of trance.

But he kept quiet and seemed to be looking at the space infront of him and mumbling something under his breath which Lamas couldn't make out.

"Sir, I'll repeat, are you ok? Can you answer me?"

Luca finally looked up at Lamas.

"Oh, oh yes Lamas. Everything is perfectly fine."

Those words could possibly be pinned off as a sarcastic reply if the situation was right, however the calmness in which he replied has worried Lamas.

After checking with Luca again, Lamas scooted over and made his way to Rico who was still cleaning his flintlock.

"I think maybe something had happened to the young prince."

Rico raised an eyebrow but didn't move his gaze from his pistol.

He wiped off anon-existant smudge and said

"You do know that he had basically watched his father and kingdom collapse before him before running away...right?"

Lamas gulped and brought out a water canister hiding in his green robes. He took a few sips before offering it to Rico.

Rico smiled and looked up before dampening his cloth and gave it back. Not before saying to go give some to Luca.

"Oh right, I forgot!"

Lamas quickly turned around to look for the young prince and called out in a smooth voice

"Hey, sir Luca, would you like some wat-"

He froze.

Rico noticing this, asked him why he stopped. After all Lamas was in the way of his view fo the prince.

"HE'S GONE!"

Ayo, just your average god here, nothing to see. Nothing at all. Oh well, you're the reader, of course you know I'm not some average god. Hehe, of course you'd be rooting for me, right?

Not that it matters, this ain't the hunger games where you provide money and the contestant works harder, faster, and with more content-cough-I mean greater chance at winning the Games.

Nah I'm kidding, I just need more faith points.

Now, to dupe a little ignorant child.

This would take some of my greatest skills.

This is potentially the greatest test I have ever recieved, even more than the ones in school.

A floating orb muttered to itself in a completely black room. Well, there's like 5 twinkles, but they're not really of worth mentioning.

Unaware of the trouble it's about to make.
