Flashback (Kaden's Point of View).
Despite having no sense of direction, Kaden eventually managed to locate the castle's main chamber, the very place that served as a prison for captured fugitives, or rather, slaves. The issue was that he had discovered it through an unnecessarily bloody and troublesome method.
After capturing a lone guard while wandering aimlessly through the castle without any knowledge of his location within the Settlement, Kaden made certain to beat every fragment of information out of the unfortunate man, leaving him drenched in blood.
Once he was finished, Kaden discarded the unconscious guard into a random corner before setting off toward the main chamber.
Of course, the entire ordeal could have been avoided had he not still been irritated with his savior, Teresa.
The handsome red-haired boy strode toward his destination with his sword resting across his shoulder.
