The craftsmen instantly cowered on the ground in terror, frightened and quick to speak in turn.
"Your Highness, yesterday afternoon, Xipak brought out a batch of very white paper, intending to present it to you. But you did not come later."
"After Lord Tezroca saw it, he went over and talked to him about something, then the two of them had an argument. Xipak threw down the white paper and ran off, and Tezroca took the batch of white paper away, saying he would study it..."
"Xipak? Where is he?!" Xiulote asked again.
The craftsmen hesitated for a moment. They glanced at the Samurai next to them, then at the person in charge who was collapsed on the ground, and one pointed to the east while another quietly spoke.
"Xipak came early this morning, and then he was locked in the small hut on the east side by Lord Tezroca."
