Chapter 89: Stupid, Sight-Blind

~ SASHA ~

"Look, Xar has convinced them to search the village. I just pray Zev has hidden himself somewhere safe. If they find him, it won't matter whether they find you or not."

"Should we go—"

"You go nowhere, and move nothing," Dunken snapped, turning away from the hole to glare at her. "This is the fox hole. It is surrounded by foxglove to cover scent. It allows a view of the village, and we'll be able to hear when they speak to the crowd. The humans are so sight-blind and nose-dumb, they will never find you here unless you call their attention to this location. A location they are not aware of. So you stand here quietly, and you do not move from this place until I tell you to."
