Bab 167: Stop it now

"Emily, Stop!!" Trace called out to the corner.

Martin struggled against the hold Trace had, cutting his neck on the blade in the process.

"EMILY YOU HAVE TO STOP NOW!" The farmer screamed, and Martin began to calm.

"I'll do whatever you want," He panted, "Please, just… please don't let that happen again."

"Open the prisons, and the cave." Trace ordered immediately.

Martin shifted his head to look at the wall, and several more openings formed.

"You'll have to let me rest before I can open the cave," Martin swallowed and breathed heavily.

Trace lowered his sword slightly and glanced at the other men. "Hey, um…"

"Gary." One of the guards said, "And that's Frank."

"All right. Frank, please have Martin sit here, don't let him move. Gary, watch over both of them." Trace didn't know how much wisdom there was in letting the men guard Martin, but at the very least, he needed to get the prisoners free.
