Capítulo 87: Rabbit

Lokus watched them go silently, his fist clenching tight.

"I told you that the people of the Aldark are vile," Endalia reminded Lokus, slapping his shoulder. "One bad apple spoils the bunch, but one good apple doesn't make the others edible. In this world, it's them or you. Remember that."

Sakari took one sniff and wrinkled her nose, only now noticing what surrounded them. "What did I miss?"

"Hell," Endalia said simply.
