Mallory shrugged. “I don’t know. Smudge was patting Tyne’s cheek and took off when she didn’t wake.”
“Think he’s gone for help?” Callum walked ahead of them as they continued along the tunnel.
Again Mallory shrugged. “I don’t know. I can’t exactly understand what he’s saying.” She smiled. “Except for when he’s giving us a warning. You should have seen him distracting the smuggler that was in the last cave. There are a heap of crates and a few barrels in there as well. I’m not sure how we’re going to get all of them out of here. We also didn’t get a chance to check the smuggler for items.”
“How many barrels and crates are you trying to get out of here?” the Mer Point wagoner asked.
“We didn’t count them. Maybe ten barrels and nearly as many crates. There are also these two chests.” Rya
