Bab 319: Guidance

"I swear to the goddess that I will not harm the Demis."

Opli nodded: "I will stick to calling you Cerlius if you don't mind. So, what's the plan?  Will we try to find the instructors or we take the demons out one at a time? No matter which we go with, i want to gather Demis along the way."

"Training?" Menla snorted indignantly. "The more time we waste, the more Demis die."

Doevm gestured to the icicles at the Demis' feet: "I have stakes in this too, but right now you're both dead weights. I will turn you both into something competent enough to fight alongside."

"Speak for yourself," Menla said as she pointed at Doevm's stump, her willingness sinking like the frown across her face. "Unless you have a spell that can make Olpi and I stronger?"
