Wolf looked Willow in the eyes for a second and than said “ Alright I’ll let you join, you have a strong heart and you seem to be determined, plus you show your emotions. Most people would say that’s a bad quality for a mercenary, but I don’t like having emotionless killers in my group. As for your test, I will decide that in the morning for now you should go home and get some rest.” Wolf smiled at Willow and than turned to Rowan. Wolf started walking toward the meeting hall, he motioned for Rowan to follow him, Wolf started to wonder what Rowan wanted, it must have been important the way Rowan was looking. When Wolf reached the door to the meeting hall he pushed it open. He walked inside and looked around. There was a long table in the middle of the room. And than passed the table was a staircase that led up to the second floor, there were only three doors on the second floor, but the doors were spaced far apart showing how big the second floor was.

Wolf sat down in one of the chairs at the table, he than said “ So, Rowan what is it that you wish to ask me?” before Rowan could speak one of the doors on the second floor opened and a woman with long black hair and cold silver eyes through the doorway. She walked to the banister and than looked down at Wolf and Rowan. Wolf looked up at the Woman and said “Helena what are you doing here?” Helena smiled and than replied “ I could ask you the same. But Wolf I need to tell you that some of the merchants are about to leave.” Wolf scratched his head and asked “ what does that have to do with me?” Helena shrugged her shoulders and said “ It doesn’t really have much to do with you, but I’m telling you because I’ve sensed movement in the forest.” Wolf sighed and said “ could it be animals or maybe Flora?”

Helena shook her head and said “ No this movement is from a group and they walk on two legs so I know it’s not any kind of animal that belongs in our forest.” Wolf let out a disappointed sigh and said “ alright well tell me if the group gets close to the city. As long as nothing happens we wont concern ourselves with it.” Helena nodded and started to walk back to the door, but she stopped and turned around. She than said “ Have you seen Elizabeth today?” Wolf tried to think and he than said “ I saw her this morning, but I haven’t seen her since then.” Helena nodded and than walked back to the door and she closed it. Wolf than turned to Rowan and said “ sorry about that, now you were about to ask me something right?” Just before Rowan could start speaking, he was again interrupted by the sound of a door opening, but it was the front door. Wolf looked and he saw two figures that walked into the hall, the sound of wet shoes echoed through the hall. Wolf shook his head, he had figured out who the two figures were. He noticed one with long green hair and the other with long black hair. Wolf looked at the one with black hair and said “ so Elizabeth was with you Flora?” Flora nodded and than pushed Elizabeth toward Wolf. Elizabeth looked at Wolf with her light green eyes and said “have you seen Helena.” Wolf pointed upstairs and Elizabeth wet running toward the stairs. Flora shook her head and than started to say something, but Wolf stopped her by pointing to the swinging doors on the main floor. Flora looked at Wolf with a surprised expression, she was wondering how he knew what she was going to ask before she even said it.

Wolf placed his hand over his face, he than said “their more like children than mercenaries.” He looked up at Rowan and said “ please ask your question before someone else shows up.”
