"You came too" said an anxious Flay who came down from the top of the tree.
"We must have come" replied Rerast
"It's better to be quick before they get caught and they also definitely don't know that they're in danger" Flay continued

Flay continued to look at Suyira and looked anxious.
Flay had already heard the story about Eldast from Eltader.
He came to Flay's room
"What's up ?"ask Flay
"Can we just talk outside?"asked Eltader while pulling Flay's arm
"I don't think this is a request but a command" Flay said
He looked so riled up that Flay just kept quiet while listening.
Even though Flay was just as surprised.

They continued to step south towards the main protective border.
The border between the enemy and the allied territories. D area his father Suyira breathed his last.
They kept running, passing through every major protector.
When they want to pass through the second protector now guarded by Tatra's college friends.
They are not allowed to continue their journey.
"Who are you ?"ask the guard leader
"Did this robe show you nothing" replied Flay
"We know, but the female guard is actually in front of us" said the oldest guard.
Suyira, Rerast and Flay open their hoods and show their faces.
"What do you need, former guard here ?" asked the guard leader a little surprised.
They already knew the identity of the first guard before that was Suyira's entourage.
"We must warn the last protective guard of the danger that threatens him" Flay said
"Let us tell them" said the oldest guard
"You can't leave this protector whatever happens except those who ask for your help" Rerast replied suspiciously
"Regarding that rule..," said the oldest guard.
"That's the main rule of a guard and you forget it" Flay continued bluffing
They were shocked and finally made way for them.
****
They continued on to the last protector.
They were deliberately spotted by the guards.
"Why did you come ?"ask Z
"To help you even if it seems like you are reluctant to be helped," replied Rerast looking at the way they saw his presence.
"We can handle it," Fang replied
"Not really. Those loyal followers of Eldester will attack this protector tonight" Flay said
"It's not tomorrow night and in Eldester's castle," Arthik replied aware that he had opened a secret
"Ahh. you know. Do others know ?"ask Rerast
Fang and Z were very surprised to have just heard this information.
"How can you know the information about this ? It was obvious that only his uncles and children knew. No one knows" said Suyira
"I know from the leader of the fourth guard. He told me, "sahut Arthik
"What's his name ?"ask Z
"Dedast," replied Arthik
"What do you mean ?"asked Fang surprised
"Yes. Dedast was already the second protective guard. How can you not know this ?"ask Z
"They answered right. You know when we had a guard meeting. Everyone has a certain way so that his identity is only known by the guards" Suyira said
"For this long..," Fang replied in disbelief.
"What can I do. rice has become porridge. You are right I am a person in Eldester's castle" said Arthik.
"No. You're not alone. Perhaps the second castle guard had already noticed it by now, "soon Rerast
"You mean ?"ask Fang
"That traitor has been by their side all this time" replied Suyira
They end up fighting but due to being outnumbered and outstripped, Arthik loses.
"Sorry, we're not even aware of that" Z said
"It's okay. Soon the enemy is coming so be prepared" Suyira said
"Do we not need help" whispered Z anxiously looking from behind the tree the number of enemies that kept coming.
