"What did you say?!" Sean shouted towards the door.
Because it was night, even the old butler, who could normally walk straight into his room, stopped at the door...
"Maester Luke and Knight Dante are here, sir. Do you want to go down and take a look?" Sean couldn't sleep since his territory had been hit by a natural disaster. He was busy shouting outside.
"Wait a moment, I'll be down."
After saying that, he turned to look at Lucille who was still standing in the room.
The sound insulation of my wooden house is not good to begin with, and it is late at night. If you get close, you can hear the slightest conversation, so the other party chose not to speak.
Instead, he pointed at himself and then at the window.
It's like saying: I'm leaving now.
Sean nodded...
After all, what follows is a matter of one's own territory, and the other party is an outsider, so logically one should not interfere. However, the feeling of just giving up and leaving when encountering a situation is somewhat disappointing.
After all, the two of them had been communicating pretty well these days. They weren't friends but at least they were acquaintances. It was really heartbreaking to leave like this.
I watched him walk to the window and suddenly stop...
Sean saw a "Hesitation!" sign appear above her head. It turned out she also hesitated.
Did he think the same thing as himself? She turned around and walked over to Sean again, suddenly pulling open the thick fur coat she was wearing, revealing her enchanting limbs and voluptuous figure. At her waist, she had a small package tied with a tight leather belt. She took out a book from it and placed it on the table.
Sean frowned.
What is this?
The magic book she just mentioned? ! !
There was nothing written on the cover, just a simple thick paper page, the roughest kind.
Then Lucille looked at Sean again and pointed out the window.
This time he was saying: I’m really leaving.
Nodded again.
That's fine. The other party just said he would charge a fee, but now he heard that there was a problem with his territory so he paid it directly. He still has a conscience, so it's worth our acquaintance.
He left his room still with a state of [hesitation!], but Sean felt that the other party was hesitant, which was good. At least it showed that they had a friendly relationship... That favorability was really good.
"Sir!" No one spoke until other voices were heard, and Kalibo outside the door called out again.
“Here I come!”
Sean put the magic book under the cabinet beside his bed and then went to open the door.
It's late at night.
Look at the state displayed in the sky.
[Night, strong wind, 5:39:40]
Only five hours until dawn...
"My lord, haven't you rested yet?" Kalibo glanced at the dozen or so candles on the table. They had obviously been lit for a long time, and even if he had just gotten up, it would be impossible to light so many candles at once.
"It doesn't matter. Tell me what's going on."
Sean avoided talking about this issue and went straight downstairs with Kalibo.
"I'm not sure either. Maester Luke just rushed over to me and said he wanted to see you. He also said there was an avalanche outside the town... Where exactly was it... I think..."
After all, the old butler is old and has not learned much knowledge since childhood. He always speaks incoherently. Apart from life, Sean rarely discusses other issues with him.
"Let's go find Luke and talk about it!" He stopped the conversation between the two.
avalanche!
I have only seen this word in books in my previous life. In fact, it has been snowing heavily these days, and it is possible that the accumulated snow on the top of the mountain has caused a landslide.
An avalanche! Could such a natural disaster really happen in my territory? So that noise just now was caused by an avalanche.
I was still thinking that the two of them had already arrived in the hall...
Luke and Dante had been waiting here for a long time.
"grown ups!!"
"Well, tell me about the current situation." It was still dark, and he had no idea what was happening outside.
"I just received news from the townspeople that the roads leading to Xi Village have been completely blocked. I don't know what's going on inside!" Luke said hurriedly.
Since Lucille came to teach him magic every day recently, Sean would occasionally put the map of Thelmian outside.
This time it's outside...
He opened the map to check the said location.
Thelemian generally refers to the name of the entire territory. What the locals refer to is of course the name of the town, but there are many places around the town, most of which are farms or other wheat fields, farms, etc. named after people, and of course there are two or three small villages.
Creek Village is a mountain village located in the northeast of Telemian. Since it is where the timber is transported out, even Sean, who has just become the lord, remembers this name.
There are about dozens of families with more than 200 people, almost all of them are lumberjack families.
"This is the place, sir." Luke kindly pointed to the location on the map.
Sean didn't say anything, waiting quietly for the map to slowly take shape before his eyes.
Because it was night, even the simulated map was dark, but with the help of the snow and moonlight, I could see many places... I could see the roofs of houses where I was and the nearby towns, and I could even see lights in the darkness.
But looking towards the northeast of the town...
All gone.
That area was almost gone, completely covered in snow.
I remember that I could see the forest and some houses before, but now it's just snow.
It was all covered in snow, extending all the way to the mountains...
Even in the darkness, Sean could still see a large gap on one side of the mountains. How could anyone survive if such a large area collapsed?!
How could it be so serious!!
Although it has been snowing these days, it is not as heavy as before. Why is this happening?
"Where are the others? How are the people over there?" Sean asked hurriedly.
There are more than 30 households there. Even though many people move to the town in winter, there are still many people who live in the mountains and forests all year round... But now, there are no mountains and forests anymore. They are all no longer covered by snow.
"We don't know the specific situation yet. I have sent people to check it out, but most of the townspeople may already know. What should we do next, sir?" Even Dante, a knight, didn't know how to deal with the problem when he encountered it.
Especially this kind of decision-making issue.
After all, he was the lord of this area...and it was at times like these that everyone would rely on the lord.
"How could such a thing be concealed? How could they organize everyone? We have to rescue them now. Even if there's little hope, at least we have to find their bodies. Time waits for no one... Hurry!"
Sean ordered.
