97. The Yard for Soldiers

Mira was the first one to see them come out of the Domain Portal.

She had a basket of cut vegetables in one arm and a spoon in the other. Blue floated past Carlos almost immediately and moved toward the fields, clearly more interested in the water there than in anyone waiting near the hut.

Then Mira noticed Tarin and Sela behind him.

Her eyes widened. "You brought them back already? What happened?" she asked curiously.

"Rowan needed them at the cultivation district," Carlos said. "Now he wants them working here until he returns."

Mira looked at Tarin first. The Dogman stood straight with his basket still strapped to his back, though his ears had lowered when she stared at him. Then she looked at Sela, who had both hands folded in front of her like she was afraid of touching anything.

Mira sighed with a chuckle and said, "Both of you come eat before you start working, alright?"
