Broken and the others stood in silence as the faeries drew closer. There was no further comment from Maylock—he seemed to consider his conclusions final.
It was clear that the attack by the monster horde had been instigated by the faeries, yet Maylock had suggested that Broken could consider trusting their Tribe Leader. Their bond, forged by surviving the attack, seemed to have created a certain level of affinity.
When the faeries were close enough, it was easy to see that one among them stood out—a figure carrying a spear, exuding a commanding presence. This faery was clearly Morel, the Knight Commander as identified by the name visible above his head. He took a step forward.
"Forgive us for our delay in welcoming you," Morel said respectfully. "My name is Morel, Knight Commander of the Moonlight Fae. I come bearing a message of invitation from our Tribe Leader, Lady Elaine."
The Moonlight Fae seem to believe in some ancient prophecy, and now they think Broken is the one who can break their curse.
