“Master Damien is funny. You didn’t mind lying about something so big. I wonder what the Living ancestors would do to you after your lies are discovered.” she smiled.

“You should worry about yourself, Emilee. What do you think that they would do to you if they found out you lied about the Rainborite stone?” Damien beamed.
