Martin II, blamed himself. As the warrior of the Abbey, he was responsible for the safety of the residents and now the monitor lizard had managed to kidnap two of his fellow Abbeydwellers right under his nose!

The whole thing was a huge mistake. He sighed and looked over at the enemy camp on the edge of the woods. Where were Brush and Laterose? Were they even still alive?

Since he had been on Sampetra he knew that you could never be too cautious in dealing with lizards. "Look at you. Still being gloomy?" North Star came to him; he was holding a pitcher and two cups in the paws.

"To help fight your sorrow and regret." The mink gave Martin II one of the cups.

“What's in there?"

"Oh, only a rare and deadly poison that only works on mice!" Martin stared at the mink, horrified.

North Star could not resist a grin. "I'm just kidding. Since what happened in my home, my humor has become a bit darker. It’s good Elderberry wine." North Star downed his cup at once. Martin II, however, was still staring into his.

"What is it? I told you it was just a joke. Or you still do not trust me?"

"No it’s not that, North Star. I’m just thinking about what we could do to rescue Laterose and Brush."

At that moment began the Matthias bell to toll and the two looked over the parapet. What they saw they did not like at all.

Eyegrim came with two dozen heavily armed lizards and the prisoners marched to the gate. Brush and Late Rose were chained together and each of them had the blade of a curved sword at their neck. A rescue was impossible.
