Toget and Livelle have been meeting like this for years. She's never complained before. At least not seriously.
They climb up out of the stream, and Livelle starts to put the rest of her clothes back on.
Well, it's about all the Talk going around. About how everyone's going to have to abandon the village? I know that your dad is on the council and I wanted to see if you knew what was going on?
Yeah uh ... I'm pretty sure I'm not supposed to talk about any of that. Panic and all.
Come on, you can tell me. We go back so far! You know I won't go spreading stuff around.
What are you talking about? You will tell literally anyone who will talk to you.
Yeah, okay, that's fair. But nobody ever believes me but you and sprout anyway.
That's not the ... okay, look. I know that you're not going to drop this. But you need to not tell anyone, okay? Not even sprout.
Geez, fine. Just, what's going on?
Okay so, the deep things started showing up way more often. They also seem to be all whipped up like something's got them all freaked out.
Wait so they're gonna overrun the town or something? Can't the guard handle it? I'll just sign up and help out.
No just ... just shut up and listen. You asked me, right?
yeah okay ... sorry. I'm listening.
It's just, the guard can handle it now. Sometimes there are just more of the things. But they've been coming for a while, and people think there might be a swell coming. If the depths come up, we HAVE to leave. Even the Oldons have been breaking their camp way earlier than they usually do.
Whoa, really? Those guys have been spending the season here forever haven't they?
Since before Rullus was even here, yes. The town started because of people setting up along the Oldon's routes. That's probably why the council is so worried, this just seems different.
...probably?
Well yeah, I don't really know much more than that. Just what I've overheard from dad.
So, that looks like it's probably all Livelle knows. Toget isn't sure where to go from here.
