"Too many people to move, they'll notice us."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3mf0el1LX
"Never shtopped ush before." A pause as the old man spat to the side. "What about fighting then, too little of ush?"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhDsz47rmO
Gob shook his head, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWSCDCn99G
tired. David could understand that, and he was annoyed he could 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrztqAp0hP4
empathize with Gob. As per Gob's decision every time it was David's turn568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVF1utoXLs
to go patrolling Gob accompanied him. At first David found this 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXsGHttF2I
insulting, he was the paragon of trust after all, but after a few of 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBRwfDSGXk
such patrols he just found it annoying. Ever patrol was usually 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA4q21Qzbh
conducted with 3 or 4 people, usually with different people. There were a568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpE1Vwwmep
few constants in those groups though, the first was that David and Gob 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2yJcGnAwX
were in them and the second was that someone always asked when they 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF51uSVRAEJ
would move.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzIuKbIjEN
Now David has only been 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzks3lRFJAI
in the camp for a month now and managed to glean some information from 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47lrlY79RO
the other rebels and just observations. There were three groups of 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s2mlFgG6Y
rebels. Peasants, peasant-soldiers and soldiers, as David liked to call 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBJUqaMM9B
them. Peasants and peasant-soldiers were the people with no, to only 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUk0PYhF7zq
basic, military training. Such as Denis and his ilk. The soldiers 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9XC6xMmJn
weren't necessary from the military, but they had more experience. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRVGVztnHP
Experience wasn't the only difference, civilians and civilian soldiers 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTXUcDBK5Q
loved and trusted both Gob and Francesca. Soldiers only trusted Gob. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKDRvPoUmI
Which worked out nicely for David as he could use this discord and 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gk8mxqG98
divided loyalties.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAXf7sizhE
Another important thing 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOmHSbIfi5
he managed to find out was that the rebels had stayed on the same isle 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ac8jmhiv8
for three months. Many of the rebels were unhappy with the prolonged 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCV0RcNF0t
stay, especially the soldiers. This resulted in that question and Gob 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciKqonsHB3
giving the same answer to anyone who asked. It was really riveting stuff568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGeJbqqRfA
for David, especially after hearing it for the twentieth third time. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWCfBCXc95
Ol' Stevie asked it around two or three times over the past few days to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiIQRgmMcx
their destination.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVHF8ibzTy
Today they were out 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsA45X1g4T
looking at the new imperial camp, turning into more of a makeshift fort,568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfLbt65dUs
being built around the wreckage of the 'Flying Fish'. It was a crude 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37lWFrn6n5
construction, something that could be easily taken apart. They were 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsjOj6BdCF
joined by Rock and another rebel, called old toothless Stevie, on 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Uo3uw6Nl7
account of him being old and having lost most of his teeth. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5XLZ7fcc8
"Yes, now shut up and 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGM276OA9P
remember everything you can about the imperials." Stevie shrugged at 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrOnhRayWa
that and continued looking through his binocular. David kept further 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxAowEctTb
away from the pair, watching their backs with Rock, the youth did not 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsv7BPXoKW
become any more talkative during Davids stay in the caves.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ34RjYwI4B
They were at their 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHELZQfvhHU
lookout spot for a few hours at this point and David was glad he didn't 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqMQzRJe31
feel any magical tugs coming from that direction, after discussing it 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkzfkIsEQl
with Francesca it turned out that what David felt was a magical tug, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5a1X0wdg2
looked like the imperial soldier wasn't anywhere near it.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPoKhYln75
"Alright, that's enough.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFwDP0NV1z
Let's head back." Gob proclaimed to the group and David sighted in 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcg7eNREaYZ
relief. Thankfully David was given new shoes, to help him walk, as well 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ44UmZ4wok
as new clothes and even an eyepatch. The walk itself was silent and 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVZPexrMNL
brutal. Gob set a murderous pace and he didn't look back to check on any568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Cr1DLdl6A
of them except for Rock, who bore it with his usual silence.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJ3zjft0VX
David walked in silence 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr8O0EM7Zv
as well. More to preserve his breathe, than anything else, as he felt 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGZNbVGa5E
that he would fall to the ground if he even tried speaking. Toothless 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9o9xnNkg4
Stevie may have been old and not have teeth, but he had more stamina 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2jyNQej2m
than David, farm work really built you up for long hours of activity.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmMWWzpAG4
A walk that would've 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFzNvu5leO
taken most of the day was managed in about half a day. David was so glad568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4keKCxtjzq
to see the damp cave that he was ready to kiss the rocks when he came 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD0gSyBag5
inside. The camp itself did not change much over the past month and 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHBjvulbeO
David was still the new guy. Though he made good strides in integrating 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTX7K6NUcf
himself as most of rebels waved to him in greeting.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yJATLfAUz
"I'll go report to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GXQJtp5yd
Francesca. You can go relax." Gob passed David without a glance at him. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgA3ZKLdd3
The fact that Gob didn't glare or spit at David's direction must've 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcMix69vW4
meant that he was finally warming up to him! At least it was more than 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UXuMRcGOK
David got over the past month, in fact he was ready to give up on ever 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPhLqd89ze
winning Gob over.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9jnXkbwjl
Francesca on the other 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMQvXzjmPN
hand warmed up to him quite fast. As Denis summarized and David 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiJwJzB4hT
confirmed she was a noble, a well read and knowledgeable noble but 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlaqtam9vK
someone who hasn't left her estate a lot and has never traveled outside 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw21V8MHZX5
the empire. While David was the well-traveled dashing smuggler. He 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY95xJimkE8
managed to enthrall her with made up stories and adventures. To be fair 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMqk0aPj1y
to Francesca she wasn't the only one falling under David's charm. As 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S7T4GP80O
most of the rebels found it hard to resist the dashing rogue act.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYp3evslBG
David just wished he 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKq8d3eEDB3
could win them over without going on patrols and risking his life. Oh 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJNmPy0pra
well no one said being a parasite was easy.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV39uEXQ8kA
Further down the camps 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBuJ3dkquc
he could see Twitch, the nervous brother of Denis. Over the past month 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPloHfQEp3U
he integrated himself with the siblings, becoming a part of their gang. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZP9PGVgSw
As the siblings were liked by the rebels in general this made them trust568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5diiUhyZTu
David all the more. David decided to join Twitch so he snuck up behind 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1J1wZqYD8u
him. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSGUBzr5Pn
"What'cha doing?"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDv3uPfzSe
Twitch practically jumped out of his own skin. "Agh! Oh D-david. Don't s-scare me l-l-like that."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QVbnHWmz6
"Sorry, twitch." David said patting the boys shoulder. "Didn't mean to, you know I hate doing it." He loved it568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIMWiPUiJm
Twitch nodded and stood beside David." 'S alright. I-I-I'm just easily sca-ar-ared."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDY2iCR2fqp
David nodded. The boy 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVg1jTlJEL
was lucky to have any friends at all." Nothing wrong with being scared."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUgEEST6Dc
He said with a comforting smile. "We all have our own strengths, like 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpK47Gj2pPA
you..." David paused for a bit racking his mind for something to say. "A568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wwG1Lb1wy
poet! A man of dreams! How're your poems going anyway? I still want to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXnfpvqNOe
read them someday."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0P4RPxruIN
Twitch muttered 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YgxULzryK
something under his breathe. David motioned with his hand for him to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uD15Y5p2U
speak up. "...n-not poems. But son-so-songs."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTh5nncNzl
David stopped himself from shrugging and smiled. "Songs, even better then! Why not create a song for the rebellion?"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7jMtS8GFL
Twitch started shaking 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwiCb5KDyC
his head but before the words: 'No' formed on his mouth a voice 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEPZvzQWrx
interrupted them. "A hymn truly sounds marvelous!" Francesca made Twitch568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikZJ7upszd
jump back even more than David did568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTMzwXoobI
"I-I-I" He continued in that vain for a while.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg2A2idYyI
"Speak up soldier!" Gobs568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnhpd41MnI
voice resounded around the cave, making everyone glance at Twitch, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GAhI5p6Ev
which should've made his stuttering worse. But his fear of Gob took over568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIERWLx7gHE
any instinct he had.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a2aejcd52
"I'mnotgoodenough!" He 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMa1Lqj0D8
said as fast possible. David was astounded it was probably the first 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNW9juzjAUv
time the boy didn't stutter. Not that he could understand what he said 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFExMsSbmx
now.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAJFfn4Y3n
"Nonsense." Francesca 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0cZ3Lwryc
put her hand on Twitch's shoulder. She didn't seem to have any trouble 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHjX0P2pmn
understanding him. "Write me a song when you can, and we will sing it, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKENlisrY2
all of us together." She projected her voice to others nearby which 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjREKmuucf
raised a rugged cheer. That just made Twitch hide his face as it went 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhfmbr1HZk
dark red.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIqKO6ga3P
Francesca spared Twitch 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7Kr23jJpW
one last warm smile and turned to the rest of the rebels standing 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7euW8j2D5
around. "It's time for your daily studies! Spread the message!" Both 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRwjURyXpt
children and adults listened to Francesca, without a hint of 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXfggnWUYv
disobedience, and started moving in one line to the study cavern, as it 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TGsrbtvMG
was popularly called.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFSzJm4YRn
The rebels not only 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctcOqMKcsS
respected Francesca for her leadership and attitude towards the 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRFrUUKWx5
peasantry, but also her attempts to educate them. Most of the rebels 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlPTxTo9pH
didn't know how to read or basic math while Francesca was an educated 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElHzQRmlRk
noble, thus she decided to teach everyone in the rebellion the basics. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygQL2N7my9
No one was barred from the lessons and both young and old were invited 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fll5t2w7G
to them. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl5PXul19u
David attended one of 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmLzjpOFYs
those lessons but found himself too bored to continue. They were talking568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyuoX29DGX
about letter and numbers and some researcher named Vesputti or 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD128MAMkZ3
something similar. Thus, he skipped over on those lessons, he wasn't the568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQss2U2bxGm
only one as most of the adults had decided that they were too old to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4fRFBHQp6
learn anything new.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡly9TF828Wz
Before leading her group568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVtaE8guMW
to the secluded cavern, Francesca approached David. "I'd like if you'd 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1a3Ks6A1y3
dine with me tonight, if it's to your liking?"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf58R5LbsNz
"Of course, I'll see you568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRktKRbgomp
later." Francesca did that sometimes, inviting David over. Chatting 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xhCoeQo2O
about trivialities, like whether he had any more vision about The Five. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpohQTjj0t6
Thankfully Jester didn't deign to appear yet so David managed to sleep 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13hRY4dqRv
peacefully, well not accounting the strange dreams about some boy crying568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cL7rRh46H
and calling for his mummy. Those dreams made David wake up in a foul 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ36Df4F5jp
mood, he wasn't certain why but thought it could be because he didn't 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wCLHxMPL1
remember his parents or family.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe0g326zQ7
Francesca, unaware of 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF582ppaTlI
David's thoughts or dreams, nodded with a smile and led her group from 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkShl99ye2
the main cavern. Twitch following her and joining his sibling to whom 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoADTdtiQGd
David waved. Turning around he came face to face with Nook.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOYKjr0tgl
"I'm off duty now, got some guys looking for a game. You're in?"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZTh4f9JZU
Nook was an interesting 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvye4g3kXm
case, while he was definitely Gob's man he didn't seem to be as 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppFhaQvN80
disciplined as the other soldiers. He was also one of the few soldiers 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYkbyZYHoD
who was friendly with David instead of following Gob's lead and hating 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0AAu1p0qQ
his guts. So they decided to have a card game here and there while 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EXFcLEt56
inviting other people, a card game in which David lost more often than 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCy201obG7
not. While David hated losing in cards it was a good method of making 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kZxNWQmeS
friends and getting to know people. As well as a guarantee to keep 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvYQgFWzrH
getting invited as long as you lost smart and graciously accepted it.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9O04LzsR9O
"Aye, why not Nook. Maybe I'll clean house this time."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYxugH2vNE
Nook grinned a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7UoFDrPTv
predator's smile and led David towards a secluded table. While gambling 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKPzFk4KKg
wasn't banned or anything, as long as you were off duty, it was frowned 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruldxLIP0G
upon by Gob. That and most rebels having limited resources. Having only 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarYOXA75f0
their clothes and weapons stolen from the empire or brought on their 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcKD6QUlZK
backs.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJy97Gv1yNj
Thus any card games were568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7wkXbY2ZI
just that, games to pass the time. At least until David proposed to bet568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghWiCLro1Q
their rations. Everyone received the basic rations few times per day 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMRzN5rDwq
and it was up to them how much of that they ate. It was barely enough to568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUDJq4CwmM
feed a healthy adult. As they have been on this isle for a while it was568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9ADSoFfxA
harder to find fresh animals to hunt every day. A lot of the rebels 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuc2SutVWn8
were opposed to that idea as they'd loose on the last bits of food they 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgF34L0O6d
did have.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlsfXe74cR
Some did think it was a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcOwGbGRiR
brilliant idea and David was sitting down with a few of them right now. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19nCas9xTe
Nook, he was confident in his card abilities. Apparently before joining 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVsEsTOrfl
the rebellion he was a militiaman in his village and gambled a lot. As 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkweMOOWPhZ
far as David could see he was more lucky than actually good. Old 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIt7jnvATKL
toothless Stevie, he joked that if he did lose his rations that it would568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcTeGXHW4G
save his last teeth. He also wasn't afraid to bet most of his rations 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNp3fsiD8t
scaring the other players into folding, a good bluffer. Finally there 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWIPVS4zdP
was Tiruk, a huge man who definitely needed more rations just to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyKkWwYqM3
survive. It surprised David anyone could keep that weight with tight the568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7590osfZJc
food has been.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr9Ry3vTW6
They were the four main 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWbIpMFHyQ
players who usually joined the gambling games. Sometimes others joined 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuCqbzvAXR
but they usually stopped after going hungry for a day or two as they 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQDAc5YjsT
lost their rations. These four though didn't give up after losing, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6HtiFlG9C
because they knew that their chances of a feast were just around the 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JZbvcnxZM
corner. That fact created a sense of comradeship between the players. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTb7Q7AAGXY
Even if they were playing against each other they understood the risks 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡul7qe6V4sN
and accepted them.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDYRMI7zuH
"''Ello boys." David 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bXjIBykXs
said sitting down at the table with Nook. There were nods all around the568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNwLdKgGnk
table and the cards were dealt. They were playing a card game called 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLnUf49WEp
match 'n go. Most of the rebels had not heard of the game or at least 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIg5t7o9Xpj
knew it under a different name but most of them caught on fast, it was 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvZiZBSSeg
often just played for fun. But the best games came from betting. As the 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iHygX3shZ
risks went higher you tried to fool your opponent into thinking that you568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgaH4NYkt0
had the match or a higher card. David loved risk games like that, he 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkebIWrd3oD
loved reading the other player emotions and using it against them or at 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpZWRh0h33
least for his own benefit. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVz4rHVTCfN
Nook was the first to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrBqk6cEIH
play. "I'm betting half of my rations on this. Gots a good deck, that I 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPxrrBEwYY
do." David could see the plastered smile on his face. At this point 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDJyrdW5K1
David could tell fake between real in a heartbeat. Nook was bluffing.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QMJWfCglL
"Alright, I'll call that." David answered.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYbhE5SPRu
Tiruk, in answer, just 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwIIg7CZpp
shook his head and folded. He wasn't risking it. Stevenson with his 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKM8S8uBXN
gaped smile called it as well and cackled a bit.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ81vpw7gJ
Next card revealed. A 3 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9o0vZesmWa
for Davids two threes. He'd have to fold that game, too high chance of 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNqrZ6aOlQ
winning. So it went on and on, rations were won and lost. David won a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxLOQvBlkv
few games but then he bet everything and lost on purpose, made Stevie a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHQ2b7vge9
very happy, old, man.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJ4LKtUq0V
Since David didn't have 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNsSpwjXgS
anything to bet with anymore he made his excuses and left the table. He 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwazFBVv4b1
took a look around for Gob and didn't see him anywhere so decided it 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQr6FfTdd3
would be safe to take a walk.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtHJPwGGsq
Another thing he took to568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaH0Jfx4YL
doing over the past two weeks was exploring, finding any secret spaces 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOYUbo3Yrt
where he might hide. The rebels themselves only found one possible 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZ2lZQ4bII
emergency exit while David found three. Of course the other two exits 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAJNX7u6FJ
only were wide enough for one person to pass through at a time. So it 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUQ0dIuuId
could be that they just didn't consider them as such.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2rvg03CRj
He also found various 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzyLbgZAhp
hiding spots, not only for him but for items he stole. Weapons, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdBLEETjwm
ammunition, food and the like. If only a small amount disappeared at a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOCQ0kb4uT
time no one really noticed and attributed it to absentmindedness. Though568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8qjU6CCza
David believed Gob was getting suspicious so he would need to start 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqIWZEh1qs
being more careful.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsH9cRKx59u
The caves themselves 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNipdyi9BW0
seemed to go through the whole isle, David didn't believe he explored 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ04KPKob7
even half of it. Gob tried to send a few soldiers every day to explore 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3F9Zu1po5l
further into the caves, but many were afraid of the dark, believing 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahTb1RRKAj
various beasts were residing in them. Refusing to go inside without Gob 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr05jozyKs
and since Gob was usually busy either creating or being out on patrols 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2iyVgTgcN
himself that limited their exploring time.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznF6jvwtXZ
That let David offer his568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bjDDCO1Gy
services as an explorer. He would explore the further caves and would 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wUKoM47Fw
report on any worrying circumstances. Gob was reluctant to let him go 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozrh5g9UUk
but was convinced by Francesca that it would be a grand idea as it would568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYf1C3fQJD
free more people for patrols and other duties.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64ainjYGvD
This time though he had a568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutb0ns1BEq
destination in mind. A bit further into one of the pathways, about an 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPsgkriik7
hour from the main cavern, there was a small pathway where a thin person568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhZHpVBzKp
could barely fit. Following that pathway, if you could survive the 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe86UyuOKX
feeling of getting crushed by the walls, was a pool. David was surprised568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONHZaW3HEK
when he found and astonished when he discovered the water was hot. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkgoAqMsMl
That's where he was 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzz0MTu5Ps
going now; he needed a clear head for Francesca's meeting. No matter how568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgntL672Day
she acted she was a noble, they always sought the best deals for 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWGTr0O3hU
themselves, always trying to ledge a situation in their favour. David 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtVAWpDAA8
would need to be on his toes. Or maybe he just wanted to actually relax 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBAzWkO4tt
without anyone screaming or crying, he didn't decide which one sounded 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXlILJ5Rhb
better in his mind.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1x5YBH6qh
Thus grabbing a torch as568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEkyeQIRDt
many of the pathways further down weren't lit, he began his, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwn38B4LrZi
uneventful, journey. Luckily he reached his destination in a timely 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjkX6uQdcD
manner, though he hated going through that cramped space. He gave a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE6j1XAkC7
satisfied sigh as he sat down in the pool, his muscles losing the 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkA5cY8Kxa
tension he gathered over the past few weeks, the water reached up to his568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpVVm9XvdN
chest and he dunked his head under the water finally enjoying a proper 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWZCk90SXq
clean. He was careful to keep track of time but other than that he let 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOvjmBtuWK
his mind wander and just blanked out. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTX2X8zZMC
Before he even noticed, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVSTQlFWdt
to David's disappointment, it was time to leave. He was also saddened by568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7j8kvDPppi
the fact that the water ended up a bit darker after his bath, a way to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32zcB41u03
hit a guys confidence. With a sad sigh he put on his dirty and worn out 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gqPyB4fXR
clothes and went back to the main cavern to the sound of activity and 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqC6pf23Qja
the smell of unwashed masses.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4zVFiAGnY
It did seem that David 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5lv8wh9jW
came back just in time as people were gathered near the cooking pots to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEClyngWi7
gather their rations. David did the same and then found Stevie, sitting 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqaA4ssIKS
with some other older rebels, and gave him his rations. Stevie nodded 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LzM9RysMo
and had a sparkle in his eye. "Maybe nexsht time you can save me 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUdN3zcmWG
teethsh." And he cackled at his joke. David managed a weak laugh that 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6JEPdCdKX
seemed to satisfy Stevie.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01GvxZbDbK
"Don't keep Francesca 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2G9DLU8cq
waiting." Came a gruff voice from behind. David tried to hide his 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOOuDA963N
annoyance at the fact that Gob managed to sneak up on him and scare him.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2unJEDJVJ
Some people just had no sense of proper manners.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbd6jFc9Yl
"Oh I wouldn't dare." 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeyUIEJ5C6
He gave a mock bow which seemed to infuriate Gob more. "I was just out 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VMAidBkK1
exploring, nothing to report so far, sir Gob." Gob just grunted and 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiooRGsBRv
walked away. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0loknrHzN8
David smiled and waved 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjTMBK2Nnr
after him, the guy really needed to unwind. With nothing else to do but 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSOS0fcDI6
shrug at that thought David went towards Francesca's room. Even if 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF72ywI6tHo
Francesca did pretend to be all for equality and the like she still had 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluV8qt3T4H
her personal quarters, such as they were, as well as an actual bed, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMoLE0J7pH
table, chairs. They were shoddy work at best, crafted quickly by some of568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6luJJo3Wk
the rebels, but they were more than anything any other rebel had. David568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIuLTCnhIj
was impressed by how she had more and yet most still perceived her as 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZo9kx4Wpr6
the paragon of virtue.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5daLCmxIn
Her room, as per usual, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZhdxhRTGs
was guarded. But the guard waved him on with a smile. David saw it as a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9s3Ff5Bd5Q
pointless precaution anyway, but what could you do. Francesca herself 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0aJl6ptII
was already seated, with a torch in the middle of the table, a pale 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswCmmCOzon
imitation of a candle. One thing the rebels had a lot of were torches, 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6vX74T91N
to light up all caverns and pathways. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEFvKLeB54
"Oh, David! Please sit" she gestured towards the second chair.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYxXZn3JOx
David sat down with a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYDaLQFqUQ
nod and smile. They weren't eating anything extravagant, just what the 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4NoBkqVaw
rest were. Dried meat, nuts, sometimes if they were lucky they could 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs4iIyZkrc
even get rabbit or vegetable soup, but that more of a luxury nowadays. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9dFLP5t1o
This time it was some dried meat of unknown origin and some water found 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVUcqjoSMz
in a stream. Delicious.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gSHlkqLtK
"So pleasantries first or business first?"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQpErMnv3K
"I found that going straight to business can ruin a healthy appetite."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqxtCP0Ec7
Francesca nodded and 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBVHwsFOal
began to cut her meat with her wooden utensils. While David had similar 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehbGBn0KRc
equipment he didn't really find much use of them and found it better to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUSguyeBLM
eat with his own hands. Made it faster and when you're under cannon fire568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSselgG1y7
fast eating was paramount.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8xsUganhq
As expected David 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdw2fq6y4nf
finished his portion first and ended up waiting for Francesca to finish 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnZ5c5zu7S
hers, which took another 5 or 10 minutes. The girl was certainly a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Kp8E7FUq9
deliberate eater.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIPwVIZ2rh
"So on to business." She568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z8zjuSA1Z
paused making sure David was ready, once he nodded she continued. "Tell568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlunmK20uIX
me, do you know who actually hired your services?"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPyBGir96L
"No idea, captain was usually tight lipped about our clients. I just always assumed it was one of you guys."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMgPiWlk25
"In a way. It's someone 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVeDH1tPxm
who's...interested in our cause. One of Gob's friends. He is able to get568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BOH635TiR
in and out of the isles without arousing too much suspicion."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgjYw7qsi9
"Can't imagine you can tell me who it is?"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DObTmGBVn
"It's not for me to tell sadly, Gob was adamant that it's best kept as secret." Francesca smiled apologetically "apologies"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WdI4LjECW
David waved his hand in a playful manner. "No worries, I'm surprised you're telling me any of this in the first place."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjedw8w0hTL
"Well, there is a 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNoXaEVqxy
reason. Since the weapons we got previously are in the Empire's hands 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJZXAIfqOe
and we can't fight them for it." Putting it lightly the rebels never 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSvGZK9zno
really fought the empire in a straight on fight. Mostly raids and 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLieOhzHAm
recruiting villagers with their possessions. Easy pickings. "Gob got in 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSTWUBWSzo
touch with his friend again and luckily we managed to set up a meeting 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiMi0Wl4hL
in a few days the edge of a different isle.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEVT3KddQc
"We will also be moving 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhf7yHdYNN
our base" she continued, sadly. "I can't keep us here with the danger 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDo2zbHt5R
increasing, so we will move slowly, to an isle we were based in before 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwuGZGauE1
so some will know where to go."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQ1fZut2jY
"That's good, why did 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOS8dF9MBo
you want to keep us here for this long anyway?" While he was annoyed at 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0stPsRpbqS
hearing that question every time he went on patrols, he couldn't deny he568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwXA9BsxYk
was interested in the answer.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbieNEyVkl
"It...It has to do with one of The Five. I can't reveal more in fear that it might interfere with your objective. "568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFiU8tPnJq
David nodded, not a full568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbcfA4kQcs
answer he wanted but to push might create a rift between them. Religion568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqoaQ2AvCG
was pretty important to Francesca "Don't worry; you don't have to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDywpDtuPio
reveal anything you don't want want to." He said in a soothing tone568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1arhcOy6iw
"Thank you." She said 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxF7uxpOERG
gratefully. "Where was I? Oh, yes. We'll have groups with specified 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9vAY9zTOw
leaders going back to that previous isle, they'll lead them and we'll 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzgt44TQRn
regroup at a specified point."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi7qAk73mH
"How will you get 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6D22nqoZJ
everyone over to the next isle?" Isles were divided by cracks, and while568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayNKrUjCqf
some you could jump over, others were so wide you could fit a full 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAYy8tcGxy
city.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFra1YyJG58
"We have small sky 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuVWvMQS2f
boats. Some of the groups will use it...Others...Others will need to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogc0aJARoR
find their own way" she said in bitter tones. "I don't like that, we're 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfIVZ0iCZj
abandoning my people. But Gob said it's too dangerous traveling in a big568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoKfYVv1s6
group."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqtiWGN3xE
"You're a good leader on your own. You should trust your own instincts." Ah finally! An opportunity to create that rift568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE77kBYA2l1
She gave him a sad smile568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRQOnrpW9y
in response. "Thank you, but I do not a good head for tactics or 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHBr6EBAmh
military matters. I've had some education on it, but Gob is much better 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Wt7tNf3xD
at it." David still wasn't sure just what Gob did before the rebellion. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJexd3dDDL
Francesca stated that the past did not matter and as long as they were 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgVRmA9kcx
willing to fight for the rebellions ideals they would be allowed to keep568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWUfs69I5l
their past in the past.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZs0sEDxgbq
"Now then, back to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3DJYiPhKd
business." She said more cheerily. "Myself and Gob will be meeting that 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSG5zfOQ5H
person in a few days. We will have guards but I'd also like for you to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4n4qDewBB
come. You're well-traveled and met many people; your advice would be 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRlgnaqMuy
valuable, especially since we'll only be bartering for them."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfB2TWxvAA
"You'll have it. I'm 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgT1Z828CC
more than happy to join you." While he wasn't looking forward to 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJeRloOEaW
sleeping with all the insects again, it might help his back to not sleep568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AzPuqniLM
on a rock hard surface.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9wMACDz0i
"Perfect! I'll let Gob know and convince him as well." She laughed sheepishly. "I didn't really confirm this with him you see."568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfTNffZvZm
"Oh, the guy loves me. It'll be easy." Francesca smiled at that, she knew just how much Gob hated David.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHkXdmoSOW
A lull in the conversation and then a question David was dreading "Did you have any more visions? From the one who chose you?"568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhBLa2BGQi
"Sadly no, I'm as 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKjW4XhJ2X
clueless as when I was born." This wasn't exactly true. He knew he had 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtidzxUNAVd
to find something, and suspected Francesca was after it as well he 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSyPs1ePTg
suspected it was on this isle. Francesca seemed to know more, but she 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3SCOv24Yg
wasn't willing to reveal it. She might hide it under lofty ideals, but 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRKGRkrhsi
she was concealing the truth from both David and the rebels.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIngrVEN2e
"Do not worry, I am 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8IHgejjyh
su..." before she could continue their whole world rocked. As explosions568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCngpZY1xN
rang from outside and rubble started falling all around them., hitting 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhl2cJvKt3
the table and dislodging the torch, casting ominous shadows on the walls568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRtYLmOEAA
"Wha..." before David could finish his thought a very worried Gob barged in. 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaCUsv3CSv
"We're under attack, they found us."
