Strange Companions XXXVI
As a chilly night falls, you follow Buddy into town. It’s a circuitous path, through areas you haven't considered as a way to get into town. The walls Ric constructed seem particularly ineffective, when considering some of the gaps and areas of weakness Buddy seems to have naturally exploited.
Buddy quickly and efficiently distributes the various distraction tools and sets timers for the morning hours. You follow behind closely, amazed at his deft movements and quick thinking - he’s clearly done this before, and you make a personal note to talk to Buddy more about his adventures later.
About halfway through placing the eggs, Buddy’s hand goes up and you both stop immediately. In the distance, you see a figure holding a torch in one hand, a lantern clipped to their hip, light glinting off their steel armor as they walk slowly and methodically. You watch Ric Ryph slowly patrolling towards the bush you and Buddy are both hidden behind.
