Chapter 11 (1/3)

The southern shopping district was very busy, with customers crowding everywhere, drawn to selected shops, for specific products. The crowd was a cross-section of the entire local society, there were dragons, elves, dwarves, halflings, orcs all around, and occasionally a vampire could be seen passing somewhere to the side.

-Did you find him?- Burked Pirce looking at Felic, who pushed his way through the squeeze in front of the new shop located at the gate leading to the district.

-You know, it's rather hard to look for him in such a crowd,- muttered the other dragon and rubbed his sleepy eyes.-Remember how he once disappeared for us on the Royal Tract? Or in the northern shopping district. Again...

-Can't you just get over the fact that he didn't do what you predicted?- The dragon sighed heavily and looked at his friend from under his squinted eyelids.-What a nuisance...- He said crossly.-Don't act like a little child. Besides, I don't know why you're so obsessed with it.
