04 – Knight + King
“So you’re saying…” began Arthur
slowly, “Tricia here pushed you into the tree hole, and then the other three
chased you down here?” Elly nodded, and Arthur frowned a little, fiddling with
his porcelain tea cup. “How odd. I’ve never heard of tree holes leading to
other places.”
“Neither have we,” sighed Rianne,
taking another drink from her tea cup. “We don’t know how to get back to our
place, and we don’t even know much about…Cardverse.” The King pursed his lips,
crossing his ankles under the table. “We don’t know how long it’s been since
we’ve been disconnected from our own world.”
“Plus,” added Reese, “We also
don’t know if the flow of time here in Cardverse is different from our own. For
all we know, days could have already passed, and our own families are looking
for the four of us.” Arthur thought about that, now playing with the silver
spoon in hand.
