“Crawl 30 degrees southwest!” Sena shouted. “Aldente!”
Aldente. That’s a code. Slowly, Faith and I crawled towards the tree located southwest. Faith motioned me to go first and so I did. This is a sort of protection.
“Ah!” a man shouted again. After that, two more shouts were heard until we reached the place that Sena ordered through the code.
“It’s safe,” Sena said as he suddenly appeared before us.
That caught me by surprise. Where did he come from and how did he find us.
“Your highness!” he said with a bow. “Are you hurt somehow?”
I lifted my head to look at him. I shook my head and turned to check on Faith.
“Your sister is…” I answered.
Sena’s eyes widened and immediately scanned Faith with his eyes.
“Are you okay?” he said in a worried voice.
