Lillian returns with Panola and tells the group--but mainly Jonas--"Ladonna is safe. She's negotiated with the Orcs for protection, and will reunite with us in the morning. As for us, we need to set up camp and formulate a plan."

"Wait, what? Why would she do that?" Jonas asks. "If she's safe, why not just come out here to meet us now?"

Lillian holds up her finger, then lowers it. "...well, that's true. But if they're telling the truth, I don't want to pry--that might irritate them. Besides, we won't be far off, in case she's trying to escape. But from what you described, Unakite, I think she's safe in their hands." She turns to Unakite--or at least, tries to. Hopefully, she hasn't disappeared again.

Unakite is still invisible, making her doll dance around the area.
"So what are we going to do then?" Henna asks.

"Set up camp as planned--but we'll have to keep a close watch, in case Ladonna escapes or the Orcs attack."

"And if the orcs do attack?" Norris asks. "There look to be around 50 of them. I don't suppose we have a plan for that, aside from run away?"

"Ah, you underestimate me. The plan is: make an illusion. And then run away," Lillian jokes.

"Hopefully it doesn't come to that," Henna says.
Panola sighs. "It sure feels like this entire trip has gone pretty far south, though, doesn't it?"

"An old man I used to know would always say, 'If you find yourself far south enough, you'll end up north,'" Lillian idly remarks. "Not sure if it applies here, anyway,"

"Let's hope that's the case here," Liala comments.
"So who is this old man, anyway? Someone from your past?" Panola asks.

“Yes. He more or less raised me, after that nonsense with the warlock.”

"He sounds like a wise man," Panola comments. "Where is he now?"

"Dead," Lillian says, in a resigned tone.

"I'm sorry to hear that," Panola says. "Then your birth family is the only family you have left?"

"'Have' is a strong word. But yes."
