The night was thick in darkness with mist mixed in when the Blood Raven Sect spy had returned to his hidden camp.
Inside a darkly lit tent, there was a hooded figure sitting at a wooden table, his rugged fingers were drumming against the surface of the table.
"Hmm… Well?" the shady figure asked.
The spy had gently bowed. "Redwood Estate has been steadily getting stronger. Their leader… Heuk Cheon… who was once ours, has become even more dangerous."
The hooded figure burned with fury and tilted their head. "And what of the children?"
"Well since it is Master Heuk, they are well disciplined. Actually, too disciplined for just a bunch of orphans. The Murim Alliance has taken quite the interest."
A pause. Then, a soft chuckle.
"Good."
A piece of parchment paper was unrolled and spread across the wooden table. It was a map of the Redwood Estate.
The hooded figure tapped a specific spot. "We move soon."
Outside, the moon hung red in the sky.
