Malrik spoke, and Zhisse eagerly agreed—they seemed like old friends as if they had known each other for years.
In the distance, Caleb watched the scene unfold, paralyzed with fear.
He had no idea what that talking skeleton was.
He had no idea what that giant spider was.

He only felt regret.

Why had he chosen to oppose Noan?
