"It seems Betsy has made the decision for us. We follow the path to the gatehouse and find out who those unfortunates are."
Narančasta notices Xim looking around the forest behind them. "Is there something bothering you, Xim?"
"Yes, there is. We need a place to meet if someone gets lost or separated ... Young-lings are always running off and getting lost. It can be quite trying," Xim add in way of an explanation.
"There," she announces finally, pointing back into the forest, "behind those rocks; out of sight but close enough to keep an eye on the path. Return here and wait. If no-one else returns by this time the day after tomorrow, return to the village."
"Does everyone understand?" adds Narančasta.
Once he is happy the plan is understood, he sets off down the path.
