It had been three days since Sagiri shook the core of Thazir, and he had not returned. His squad was still in the war fortress. Now that the Kai knew who they were, they loudly announced they had stopped hiding their identities, and they had told him where they had met Sagiri and a few stories about him back at the academy and the missions they held together, and how he came south.
"Brother has really suffered, yet he is still so kind," Azir said.
"Kind? Is this boy blind?" Kaka snickered.
"Where is he now??" Ulekai whined. After the second day, everyone had started to get restless. They needed to leave soon.
"So you boys knew he could die and still followed him?" The kai marveled. "Such an honorable bunch.
"Well, he has saved us a thousand times. It will be selfish to say no or let you southerners skin him alive." Kiuga said. Even so, he was restless. They needed to live the following day at the latest, or their presence would be missed in the north, too.
