Part Two
That evening in the human town on the other side of the woods, Adelbert moved around the room he’d procured at the inn, packing the provisions he’d obtained for his journey. Keenan sighed as he watched the man.
“Are you sure that you want to go through with this?” Keenan asked Adelbert as the man worked. “They’ve left us alone at this point because they don’t see us as all that much of a threat, not to mention that the kid wants to think of us as allies. But if we do this, we’ll become true enemies of Shin Makoku. Their troops will pursue us to no end.”
Adelbert paused as he picked up an item. “I know, Keenan. But this is something that I must do. I can’t leave things the way that they are now, knowing what I do. I can’t miss this chance. It might be the only one that I get.” He turned to face the other man. “I can’t ask you to come with me, but-”
“You should know better than that,” Keenan said with a faint smile. “I’ve been with you this long, and I intend to see this through.”
Adelbert smiled, placing a hand on the other man’s shoulder. “Thank you, Keenan.”
