"Peng peng peng." Lute retracted his wings and landed on the windowsill. He raised his hand and knocked on the bottom glass of the window. A small face soon appeared behind the foggy glass. It was clearly a little girl. She looked no more than eight or nine years old. She was wearing an exaggeratedly large hood. Under the hood were silver bangs and slender eyebrows. Under the eyebrows were a pair of big eyes that seemed to be able to speak. A faint layer of light floated above the silver pupils.
She was wearing a pair of glasses on the bridge of her nose. The round frame of the glasses had a slit on the left side of the glass lens. Her face was a little red. When she saw the little fairy outside the window, her face quickly showed a happy look. She quickly opened the window bolt and let the little fairy fly in.
"Are you okay, Mr. Lute? Did you find my sister? Was she caught by the Sheepshead Cult? Is she okay? "
The little girl waited for Lute to fly into the room and immediately closed the window. She couldn't wait to ask a lot of questions.
"I'm sorry, Lotus. The security in the square is too tight. I can't get there. I don't know if your sister is there. " Lute flew straight to a desk. There was a thick layer of dust on the desk. There was a place on the desk that was wiped clean. He sat there and answered.
Lotus's face suddenly turned pale. She leaned against the chair helplessly and said, "You still haven't found my sister …"
Lute glanced at her and comforted her, "You don't have to worry too much. Those guys haven't started their living sacrifice ceremony yet. If your sister really fell into their hands, she should be safe for the time being. Damn it, if only this was Erouine. I know a very powerful guy there. He can definitely help us. "
"Mr. Lute, you don't have to worry. My sister and I spent some time in Aouine with my mother when we were young. We will definitely find a way to help you find your way home." Lotus finally calmed down after hearing Lute's words. She even comforted him in a crisp voice.
"I've said many times that it's not my home. My home is in the Scorching River. It was originally connected to the shallow sea and the Storm Stop Mountain, but now it should have been thrown into the void. It's not so simple to go back." Lute shook his head, "But I do have to go to Erouine to find that person and see if he has returned to his homeland. After rescuing your sister, we'll go to Erouine together. Anyway, you don't have any relatives here."
Lotus nodded. She was looking forward to the future described by the little sprite. She replied sincerely, "Thank you very much for staying to help us, Mr. Lute."
The little sprite was not polite. He stayed to help the little girl purely because he felt sorry for her. When he first met Lotus, she was being chased by the Sheep-Head Cult. Later, he learned that Lotus wanted to rescue her sister, so she was discovered near the square.
According to Lotus's description, she and her sister were on their way to the Land of Eternal Death when they were ambushed by a group of cultists. Her sister pushed her into a ditch by the side of the road in a moment of crisis, and that was how they managed to escape. However, when she woke up, the two sisters were already separated.
Later, she heard that the Sheep-Head Cult was attacking everywhere to prepare for a living sacrifice two months later. She speculated that her sister might have fallen into the hands of the Sheep-Head Cult, so she came to Hardland. However, although Lotus was young, she was very smart and had a sweet tongue. In fact, she took a detour to Port Ovich in the northern part of the Dead Moon Inland Sea. From there, she took a 'free' boat to Hardland.
The boat was actually a merchant ship that ran a fixed route between Hardland and the northern part of the Dead Moon Inland Sea. On the ship, she met a priest of the Dead Moon Temple who was also the ship's doctor. The doctor sympathized with her and brought her to Hardland. He wanted to help her find her sister. But Lotus knew that the captain and crew of the ship did not have much influence in the upper echelons of Hardland. In order not to get them into trouble, she quietly left a note and went ashore. The crew went ashore to look for her for a while, but in the end, they found nothing. Outsiders could only stay in Hardland for a limited time. In the end, the crew had no choice but to return. Perhaps they hoped that the little girl and her sister would have a good ending.
Not long after that, Lotus met Lute in the process of looking for her sister. In fact, it was the sprite who saved her life. Lute was very sympathetic to the little girl, and after knowing that she and her sister came to Madara from Erouine, he was even more determined to help her rescue her sister. Then, the three of them went to Erouine to find Brando.
In fact, he had wasted too much time in the wilderness since he was thrown into this place from outside the elemental barrier. Although he had a good understanding of the human world, it was all knowledge from books. He had never come to the Prime Material Plane before. Once he was in the wilderness, all the methods he knew to identify directions were useless. He could not understand the maps he stole from the bandits and merchants. He had taken a detour all the way to Hardland. He had thought that it was a port in the DarkStar Sea and planned to take a boat from here to White Mountain or Silver Bay controlled by the Wind Elves. From there, he would take a boat to Erouine.
But he did not expect to run into the Dead Moon Inland Sea. He had originally landed on the east side of the undead sequence, which was very close to the DarkStar coast. He did not expect to walk further and further in the past two months.
This discovery made Lute very depressed. For the first time, he doubted his ability to find his way. Therefore, if he did not want to walk in circles in Madara forever, the half-elf sisters might be his only savior.
The fairies were often superstitious about the guidance of the stars. Lute believed that it was the stars that led Lotus to him that night.
Other than her sister, Lotus had no other relatives. Although she remembered living with her mother for a period of time when she was young, they were still living in Erouine, a place called Lantonilan. Not long after, their mother left them in a local monastery. Before leaving, their mother left a large sum of money to the monastery's dean and them. She also told them that if they wanted to find her in the future, they could go to Madara in the south. But before that, they had to have the ability to protect themselves first.
According to the tradition of the silver elves, they had to be adults before they had the right to travel.
But not long after their mother left, the monastery's dean, greedy for the money that belonged to them, found a way to drive them out of the monastery. Lotus and her sister only carefully kept one of their mother's relics. She had a beautiful necklace pendant, while her sister had a cloak. After that, the two of them wandered around Manowar and Braggs, struggling to survive.
About ten years ago, her sister managed to get a sum of money. Then, the two sisters left Erouine and came to Madara together. But it was easier said than done to find a specific person in the vast Kingdom of the Dead Moon. Moreover, it had been nearly half a century since their mother left them. Whether their mother was still alive was still a question. Otherwise, how could she bear to leave the two sisters in Erouine and not care about them?
After wandering around Madara for a few years, the two sisters went to most of the northern parts of the Dead Moon Inland Sea. This time, they wanted to go to the Land of Eternity to find their mother's whereabouts. They heard that there was a woman called White among the Knight of the Queen of the Dead, and the name White was one of their mother's aliases.
But they didn't expect to encounter such a thing on the way.
Lute agreed with Lotus's experience. Although he had his own people and relatives, fairies were born without parents. Most of the time, they were driven by their own curiosity to wander around. Some fairies even came to the main plane, such as Miss Tata's sister Rose. Although Lute had never been to the prime material plane, he had travelled to most places outside of the Elemental Domain before meeting Brando.
The two were silent for a moment. During this time, Lute drank some honey to fill his stomach. He stole it from a kitchen. Of course, it wasn't stealing for fairies, because they didn't have the concept of money. In their view, everything in the world was natural, and there was no such thing as a 'master'.
In fact, other than his sword, which was as important as his life as a swordsman, he would not hesitate to take out everything he had if there was another person who needed it more. Of course, in reality, most fairies were poor people who were born empty-handed and lived their lives without any worries.
Lotus also ate a few biscuits, but she ate very little, although most of them were stolen by Lute. However, the little girl treasured all food. Only those who had experienced hunger would understand the value of food. She wanted to let her sister have a taste of these exquisite biscuits after she was rescued.
"I thought about it," Lute said vaguely as he sucked the honey on his fingertips. "We should do this. I heard that humans like to go to a place called 'bar'. We can go there and ask for some information. Maybe we can find some useful information."
"We?"
"Yes." Lu Te nodded. "I'm too conspicuous here. You have to be the one to gather information. When the time comes, I'll hide in your hood. You just have to listen to my commands. You can't go wrong."
"Okay!" Lotus's eyes lit up. If it wasn't for the fact that the little minx strictly forbade her from leaving this place every time she went out, she wouldn't have wanted to stay in this empty abandoned house by herself. Besides, in her opinion, although the little minx was very powerful, he wasn't very reliable.
It had been half a month, and this was the first time she thought of asking for information. She didn't know if the fairy was too muddle-headed or not familiar with the way the human world worked.
