Bab 530: 530 Fae Favours

The boats were waiting as Wolfe prepared to heal the damage to the last few Witches, and the two groups began to load themselves in, preparing to head to the village.

But then, something seemed to go wrong. One of the witches walked to the front of the boat and was immediately hurled back toward the trucks and out of the river.

Wolfe didn't see any magic being used, so either it was a very hidden Fae, or the forest itself rejected her.

"You, miss Witch, please step over here for a moment." Wolfe requested.

"Mary, please cast a truth spell for me."

Mary activated a truth talisman, and Wolfe placed a gentle hand on the Witch's shoulder.

"Did you lie when you swore to pay your debt?" 

The witch shook her head. "No."

"Then did you lie when you promised not to harm me and my people?"

Again, she shook her head, looking somewhat terrified. "No."

"Are you spying or carrying any transmitting devices?"

"No."
