Chronicles of Kings and Knights/6

Chapter 23
 ---

After the battle, the inquisitors had a meeting to decide what to do with Hobenrûd and the others. To not give any possible reader of this work the feel I am concentrating far too much attention on minor characters, suffice to say that they decided to not punish them, since they helped to protect the Order's property, but the inquisitors would not protect them anymore. They were alone from now on.

As the five of them left the ship, on the port-city of Akumba, the captain remembered Hobenrûd of a promise his, before closing the drawbridge, and no matter how much they asked, Hobenrûd dismissed the matter as "of no importance". And thus, they finally crossed the great eastern sea, and reached Sumdo. Ready to start another journey, on a strange land.
