He didn't know there was a war going on outside, nor did he know the difference between the Lord and Kelan, or what would happen if either of them won or lost.
He only knew that thing could keep him and his family alive.
The soldiers were stunned, looking at their leader in confusion, then at the sister, and unconsciously took a step back.
Carian said nothing, but stepped forward, standing in front of the family, and reassured them in a gentle voice.
"Don't be afraid, we are here to help you."
The man looked up, his cloudy eyes filled with distrust and fear, he stared at the green turban on the soldier's head, his lips trembled, but he couldn't say a word.
Carian looked back at Brennan.
"They seem to be very afraid of you, why?"
Brennan didn't answer, for the first time, a trace of discomfort appeared on his rugged face, his eyes wandering uncertainly.
Seeing his hesitation, Carian stopped asking and crouched in front of the small child, speaking in a gentle voice.
