Asher leaned back till he was laying flat on the ground, with the grasses and leaves of trees rustling around him for a moment.
He was actually starting to like how peaceful it was outside, especially like this, surrounded by just people who wouldn't judge him.
Compared to how toxic his past life was, it was a little better here, only that the rules here are far different from the ones in the past.
Like the murder rule and theft.
He closed his eyes for a moment and finally asked, "What are you really doing here, Sinnett?"
There was a pause, then his smile faded just a touch.
"I'm looking for something," he said. "Something dangerous. Something I think is buried in Velcrest or maybe hiding inside someone. I don't know yet. But when I find it, I need to be ready."
Nova exchanged a glance with Asher. Both of them became silent, but they were confused and curious.
They wondered what else Sinnett might know that they didn't.
