Chapter 234: Kellen's great plan

Kellen wasn't expecting the look of shock and horror that crossed his trainee Field Guide's faces when they saw him with a cane, but Brent seemed to expect it. His expression was hard as the Guides entered into the smaller meeting room, their expressions aghast and horrified. 

"He'll be fine. The Captain is dealing with it." He informed everyone once they had arrived, and that seemed to soothe them. Kellen, however, was not soothed, since he didn't understand why they were so upset in the first place. 

He had been frequently hurt on the front lines. Was this just a city Guide thing? If that was the case, why was Brent behaving like this? For goodness sake, Brent only had one arm, and Kellen had never treated him like this.
