Bab 103: Chapter 103

Madge clutched the pendant in her hand as she watched for any movement at the cave entrance. She was tempted to look past the entrance, to peek into the cave mouth, but she had no visibility from where she was perched. As the only healer her friends trusted, she wasn't about to bait herself by a rogue lair.

The cave was deep enough that they had no means to communicate with each other, or anyone outside the forest at that time. Madge stirred uncomfortably, wondering how worried Ana dna Meghan would be back at Arcane. This wasn't supposed to be a raid, they were severely underprepared. 

She did not know who she was more angry at - Mika, who carelessly ran into danger, or Austin who refused to let her do it alone. Although the night breeze remained cool, Madge found her hands clammy with sweat. With each passing minute her friends remained inside, the probability of injury increased and she knew it was only a matter of time before she would need to heal someone.
