Chapter 116: Then there were two

Nix opened his eyes slowly, mid-morning on the fifth floor and nearly an hour before they were required to vacate the level. Hyai and her Aquarion friends were clearing the camp while Jun Li was showing her companions how to take the tents down. He was leaning back against Morti who was snoring softly, someone had placed a blanket over his legs.

Morti turned his head when Nix moved. "Nix. Can you bring Pinky into Inferno?"

"She's already in a guild Morti. Tea Leaf I think, right?"

"I don't like them. They aren't very nice to her." Morti's big brown eyes stared at him,

"Did something happen I should know about?" Nix stood up, he scruffed the fur on Morti's head, making the black hair stand up.

Mort moved to a sitting position. "They told her she'd have to leave the guild if I didn't help them."

"I see... Did Pinky tell you that?"

"No, she hasn't mentioned it. I heard them talking to her."
