On the next day, at the entrance of the village of giants, a huge crowd, including almost every giant in the village, came to bid farewell to the people leaving the village, including the lord. The current team included all ten people Jack chose, except the runesmith, while everyone was ready with a bag on their shoulders, including Jack. The only exception from the original team was that Carus was nowhere to be seen.
The old chief was there, but even he didn't know about Carus's decision yet. Jack knew better than to ask about what the chief and Carus discussed; he did not care about their personal matters. They will leave in a few minutes if he does not show up. They will leave without him; he won't waste more time than he had to.
Suddenly, Jack was approached by the runesmith.
