No.
The M section, a, u… Missing from the current headcount, but listed on her previous copy.
In an instant, she rushed out of the room, face dark as she approached the rest of the Council.
Hyndrel stands, and the rest of the council follows.
The council quickly filed out of the town hall. Vortea wished them a brief farewell, stopping at her home for a short time only for supplies before taking flight into the stormy grey skies.
She had to stop him this time.
No.
“M… M…”
“...”
“Vortea? What did you find?”
“... The worst has happened.”
She clutched the paper in her hand, feeling the weight in her chest.
“I’m going on a solo expedition. I don’t know when I’ll return.”
“Wait- Where are you going?”
“I must check how far Hollow has already affected. It may not have been long, but he works fast.”
“I don’t want to imagine how many he has already hurt…”
“Are you sure?”
“Certain.”
“We will mobilize the town guard within Whistler Crest, and increase patrols around the clock.”
“Good. Have them be on the look out for unusual activity, be it spiritual or something more.”
“Leota and the other Spiritualists can surely help with that.”
“I will speak with her.”
“We cannot do much until the results of Vortea’s expeditions. Everyone else, assist the town guard with patrols as you are able, and keep watch.”
Hyndrel stands, and the rest of the council follows.
“… We’ll have to tell the town.”
“We will. Let me confirm his path first.”
The council quickly filed out of the town hall. Vortea wished them a brief farewell, stopping at her home for a short time only for supplies before taking flight into the stormy grey skies.
She had to stop him this time.
