Chapter 15: Asking

Jordan once again walked down the stairs. He's been in this place for five days already, at least that's what he thinks. Morgana still didn't give him any other food, and to be honest, he craves something tasty. These past five days all he's been doing was passing the time with Tollem. Talking with him, playing with him and generally just being with him. He still hasn't seen any of the other tribe members.

When Jordan reached the first floor, he saw that Tollem was sitting on a chair besides Morgana, eating something from the table in front of him. Jordan made his In their direction. Tollem and Morgana of course noticed the child with wolven features coming to their direction."Heyo! So, how's sleep been? Any interesting dream you want to talk about?" Tollem asked with a smirk.

Jordan didn't really remember any dreams, and so, he just replied with a quite 'don't know' and sat down in a chair next to them. "Hello" said Morgana before continuing eating the delicious looking grilled meat in front of her. Jordan awkwardly nodded in acknowledgement. This has been happening for the past days. When he first saw Morgana, she seemed like a normal girl, but now, she seemed robotic. He wonders what happened.

"What's on your mind?" asked Tollem, also eating grilled meat. "Well… uh.. it's just that… I have some questions… so.. um.. after you finish eating, I will, um, ask them" said Jordan. Yes, he still didn't ask them any of the questions that had been plaguing his mind. He decided that today is the day, that he finally gets some information about this place, how he got here, and how to get back.

"Uh, ok. Ask away! After we finish eating of course. Morgana, it's fine that he asks some questions, right?" asked Tollem while smirking. Morgana turned her head and looked and Jordan for a few seconds. "Yes, I will answer any question you have." With that answer, she got back to eating silently.

Tollem looked at Jordan for a few more seconds before going back to eating himself. After Morgana and Tollem finished, they looked and Jordan and found him sitting in a daze once again. He has been doing that ever since he got here. And now his doing it again. Both couldn't help but think that he's being cute.

Jordan snapped out of his reverie. He saw that Morgana was watching with a cold but somehow gentle face and Tollem was smirking while looking at him. "Uh, what?" Jordan asked, hoping to get out of this awkward situation. "Nothing!" Smirked Tollem. Tollem and Morgana both got up and dragged their chair so they would be sitting in front of Jordan. After sitting down Tollem decided to start the conversation. "Sooo, what's up?" He asked.

Jordan thought about all his questions he wanted answered. This is it. Today.. today he will get the courage and ask the questions.
