"Come on, if it wasn't for such a ritual, I wouldn't have met H, right?" I was getting frustrated that Brown had been crouching in silence for a long time.
"You could have known about H because he was just picking up Naomi. Or someone from yours used to do the ritual." Brown got up and faced me again. "So, your words just now don't guarantee that Ivan really did the ritual."
I sighed, massaging his forehead. "Why would I kill your people if that would infuriate your tribe? We are still so small."
"I have enough with your bullshit." Brown's voice began to tremble. "Time for my people to destroy you...."
"So, I'll trap you here." I cut him off. "Time will go by so slowly for you. One second will feel like years to you. You can't take care of your people."
I had to get the crap out of it. This is the last resort, although it will undoubtedly create an enormous tension with Acornhull.
