“What about Sybella, where had she gone off to, I thought you said both of you were together this morning and went in search for me in the mines, she didn't come back with you” Belitrus asked now fiddling with his fingers after such a stressful work at the active mine site “Oh, she said she works at the clinic, sorry medicine man shop or something of that nature, that she was going to check how the place was fairing and do some work too before she come here again” Elvira was now sitting down beside Belitrus as they discussed “And yeah, before I forget, she was talking about something about going somewhere all of us together, if I can remember she said something about durid's place?” Elvira said “Yeah that's true, Durid is our new friend who Sybella met a while ago, sha it's kind of complicated but I promise you you would like him a lot and what he has to show you, we can all go to where he stays when Sybella gets here, it's her who knows the way there” Belitrus said, now staring into Elvira's eyes in a deep way, feeling so emotional of being far apart for such a long time “Why haven't you been back here all these while, I have missed you a lot, and I always waited for you in the place we agreed to see eachother whenever you come into the mine” Belitrus said, “i really miss us being together” “Awww, I really miss you too Belitrus” Elvira replied, feeling a lot nostalgic “So how have things been inside the mine?” Elvira asked, "Hope you haven't been harassed again by one of the mine guards because of our friendship" she looked at him with a bit of a sorrowful eyes, like her friendship with him must have been a constant burden on him being in the mine and been watched by mine guards having knowledge that he, just a Savager was a friend to the great land of Alzhamera councillor daughter “Things have been Normal I think, there have been a shortage of food like 8 times since you last left, but that's better than most times I guess, the mine guards are still as mean as always and the death tolls within the mine increases by the minute I guess” Belitrus responded “i see” Elvira said, “The mine would always be the same untill they remove these gigantic mine gate wall restricting you guys from going into the unlimited lands and wealth that awaits just anyone” “its alright, we are all already used to it ” Belitrus replied, having spent his whole life here, it's now more like home than a b*****e, tho a very dangerous home at that but he may not know or have an idea of how bad since he haven't experienced anything else than this his whole life "What do you think about the library and books?" They both suddenly heard the voice From outside the cell patch as Sybella came into the cell patch smiling after making her question known to the unsuspecting audience “Sybella!, My new friend” Elvira said as she stands up to welcome her into the cell patch “Hey Sybella” Belitrus made his own greeting, “where have you been, why didn't you come with Elvira back here when you had searched for me but not seen me” he asked “Yeah, didn't your friend over here told you the reason why?” Sybella asked, not expecting an answer “had to reach the medicine be shop so I could prepare some things before making my way into the tunnels in search for some special herbs, would have been here since otherwise” “Ok, it's great we are all here now” said Belitrus as he started putting things in place inside his cell patch as he prepares to leave “So we are off to durid's secret Library now I guess” Sybella said with a sting of joy in her voice, “Have you told her about the place, you said she talks a lot about books” she drilled Belitrus with questions, "how do you think Durid would be like after seeing Elvira who is from the lands outside the mine “i don't know Bella, when we get there then we would be able to know what ever” he responded, a bit tired of talking now ‘Bella?’ Elvira had the thought in her head, ‘So be already had a nickname for her’, and she felt a bit of jealousy unconsciously After that they all headed out 9f the cell patch, all prepared, but Elvira mind was still in the conversation that they both had before leaving the cell patch, “So you said something about durid's library what did you mean by that, do you know what a library is?” Elvira asked, was surprised when she had mentioned it before during their conversation Had thought it was a word that must have a different meaning with that of the one she knew all too well, for a library was one of the last things you would expect in the savage world under the earth “Library, like filled with different books?” Sybella said in confidence as Durid had taken his time to explain what he meant by the word library, books and other related terms “Oh wow” Elvira was truly Surprised as they continued walking towards the tunnel path they were in, “So, someone, a savage built a library inside the mine here?” she asked, “How was the person able to get his or her hands on books or even the knowledge of even what a library was, to be able to build one” “Feom the information I have when outside the mine, books are the last thing ever the Red dynasty would be willing to send into the mine, but now you talk about a library?, That would be absolutely impossible I think” Elvira said, being unable to get her head around the concept of there being a library built or lieing around somewhere mysterious inside the mine Sybella grinning widely was looking directly at Elvira face to be able to try to tell what she may be feeling at this moment “Dont worry , when we get there you would be able to tell us what those things are” Now halfway to where they were going to, they noticed a small crowd gathered by one side of the tunnel, way out of their way, so they did not have to go through the crowd nor interfere without cause But then Elvira noticed something, it seemed like it was a female teenage Savager that the object of attention was on, with a small group of probably a Savagers g**g round her and making unsolicited advances “Leave me alone, you pig!” she shouted at one of them who wanted to grope her by the side, “Come 0n girl, behave yourself” the Savage g**g member who she shouted at said to her raising his dagger up, with the sharp edge pointed at her “Stop it!!..” the teenage Savage girl shouted at another of the Savager g**g member, this was happening in one of the tunnels attached to the secondary tunnel, so there wasn't much people passing, but there was still people on that tunnel, most avoiding the occurrence ongoing at if they could not see it “She wants to leave, make way for her boys” it was Elvira, she was right in their faces now, with Belitrus near her side while Sybella waiting a bit far off, she was no warrior, just a saver of lifes through treatment and medicinal plants “woah whoah, what do we got here the leader of the g**g had now turned his back to the savage teenage girl they were trying to harrass and now facing Elvira straight on “Wanna join the party?” he brought out his dagger to make Elvira run away with her tail between her legs but immediately she sensed the threat, it was all over  She used her knee to bump between his legs, sending him into a long scream of pain, with his knees clutched together, almost falling down and his head bowed down in response to the great pain Elvira had just impacted on him Before the other g**g members had have time for their move, Elvira had already retrieved the dagger the leader of the Savage g**g group was using to threaten her and made a stab at the side of his now bent back, making a minor but destabilising injury on his back The rest of the g**g still in shock of how fast the move had just been implemented, totally taking out their leader from the equation was in a slight pause, probably thinking if the fight was worth the risk they were about to embark on Tho before they could each decide that it was better to flee than take on the fight, the most aggressive of them was already in control “Kill that daughter of the earth!!…” he shouted and all of them went into an attack mood on Elvira Belitrus immediately came into the picture with his dagger in his hand, and Elvira by the side The fight have now fully broken out as all were now engaged in a clash of daggers and flesh ‘thumm…. ddd’ one of the Savagers behind suddenly fell flat on the ground and all in the fight noticed it, as he was the g**g member at the back, further away from where the fight was in full swing Their attention immediately taken back to the fight as Elvira did not stop her rage upon this group who have unfairly tried to molest the young female Savager Belitrus was in a hot battle with the most aggressive of them all, the one who had made all of them started fighting instead of fleeing for their dear lives In a sharp movement, Belitrus took a hit at the Savager he was currently fighting with, sending him to a backward movement, away from him, but Belitrus did not stop there, he wanted to out him down, as the one currently in control of the group ‘thunnn…nnnd’ another one of the g**g member fell, before they could all notice the cause, a different Savage warrior was a bit far away, using some kind of instrument,a flute blowing some poisonous darts at the g**g members, making two of them to be flat on the floor now Seeing that there was no more hope of winning the fight, the remaining of the Savage g**g members couldn't take it anymore as they went into flee mood, leaving behind their companions who were already fallen The leader still in pains and seeing that all his members had ran away, leaped out of the place slowly, Elvira leaving his to his path, she had already done too much damage to him she thought Sybella was already coming to meet them where they stood as the fight was already all over, Elvira looked around in search for something that seems missing “Looking for the teenage girl?” Sybella asked laughing, “she ran off and left immediately all your attention was in the fight, she's long gone and probably safe now” Sybella said “Goth?…” Belitrus said aloud as he saw a figure coming towards him and it was clearly the same man he had saved and Sybella had patched up, saving his life “What, are you serious?, Where is he” Sybella immediately said as she heard Belitrus called the so familiar name, the basis of both of their connection “yeah it's him Sybella was excited as she turned and saw him coming towards them, a bag hanging on his shoulder and the flute he had just finished using in his hand Sybella hugged him tightly, "it's been so long we last saw you, where have you been" she asked “In the Shadows?” Goth replied and they all went into laughter, probably all happy to be out of this tensed up situation they had all been a while ago Goth was now looking straight up at Elvira “whos this?” he asked “oh it's Elvira, Belitrus friend from outside the mine, and now Also my very good warrior friend” Sybella answered with a smile “Ok that's good to know" Goth replied Sybella, "Wow, you fight so good, like a high ranking warrior of the Red dynasty” he said,  "yeah thanks a lot" she replied, "tho am not a warrior of the Red dynasty, but a solo warrior with no pledge to any land of the earth, especially not the Red dynasty"  “Wow it's so good we are all together now, I guess fate have brought us together on this day” Belitrus finally said, as they began moving again “Goth, can you join us, we are going to visit another of our new friend, a fellow Savage, not too far from here” Sybella asked Goth “Yeah surely” he replied And together they all journeyed to Durid's secret Library, unconscious that they had just formed one of the great group the Red dynasty is yet to experience
