Priest Dravya looked at the exhausted faces around him while he helped Priest Dharma sit down on a rock. Ashwin lay on the grass and Trisha was cleaning up with a wet cloth. He then turned to Shaurya who too had a face drained of any energy as he went to examin the shield they had around the Shunis. Even if he couldn't hear the beasts trapped behind him, he could see them causing a ruckus inside. Their vicious mouths opening and closing constantly, probably barking, as their saliva dripped from it. Their white pupil-less eyes staring right at them as if every one of them had a target on their backs. The pack looked like rabid dogs that needed to be put down immediately. Priest Dravya then looked away as the sight instilled a fear in him that he couldn't put into words.

It had been three days of walking that lead to nowhere. Priest Dharma was still injured and had a difficult time walking, and since they had been ending up at the shield again and again, there was no point in making the poor man move anymore. Priest Dharma was a hard headed man who wanted to continue regardless of his injuries. He knew his brothers were in dire need of their help, and the plan they had for dealing with the situation. He didn't want to be left behind. But Priest Dravya refused to let him walk anymore, he needed to rest to recover or else he won't be anything more than a burden. The stubborn old man had finally given up after hearing that. That was the last thing he wanted to be.

Shaurya came back after inspecting the shield spell and sat down near the two priests. Ashwin passed the water to them and they took turns to quench themselves. Shaurya then took the last sip before throwing it back in the bag.

"How much do we have left?" he asked.

"Two more bottles. It'll somehow last for just a day." answered Ashwin. There were a lot of people in this group. They had taken some supplies when they started the journey. Everyone had carried around their own supplies but no one had expected to get trapped here. And this part of the forest hardly had any water sources nor any food supply. Theirs had lasted them till now but it was running out too fast.

Priest Dravya couldn't help but sigh as he turned to Shaurya.

"You said you knew what witchery this is? Don't you know how to get out of this?"


"It most definitely looks like the Hundred Chambers of Deception. But that is very high level magic, one person cannot conjure it. It's impossible. That's why I had ruled out that possibility but I don't know anymore." Shaurya shrugged his shoulders as he looked at his teammates helplessly. He couldn't shake away the responsibility he had, he was the leader of this team. He has to find some way out of this. He turned to Priest Dharma as something popped up in his mind.

"Priest Dharma, from what Visha had heard, all of you were ready to lay down your lives in order to go against him? You are priests who don't know anything about witchcraft, and are absolutely defenseless against it. What exactly did you all have in mind to do against a warlock?"

Priest Dharma was taken aback by his question, he couldn't possibly tell some outsiders the secrets of the priesthood. No one knows the purpose of this priesthood except the Hall of Priests, not even the priesthood itself. He absolutely cannot reveal it to some outsiders. He was grateful for all they had done, and would personally lay down his own life to protect these brats but this was a priesthood matter. His personal feelings had no say in it, so he chose to say quiet.

Shaurya saw the reluctance on his elderly face and still continued.

"It has been three days since we put up that binding spell." He said while pointing towards the shield with his chin. "I doubt it will hold on for much longer. I'm sure you wouldn't have came all the way here to face a warlock with nothing in mind. If you do have something up your sleeve, then maybe that thing can get us out of here too. The shield can go out anytime, we are running out of food and water. Please, we are sitting ducks in here. If you don't open up soon, there will be nothing left of us." Shaurya pleaded. He saw a sudden shift of emotions in Priest Dharma's eyes and a hope bloomed in him. Priest Dharma let out a long sigh as he faced Shaurya.

"What we had in mind, required a lot of power. I am unable to do it alone. I really have nothing up my sleeve. But something must have alarmed Drona to put up such a fierce defense. I see no threat here except the prayer I had made the night before this started."

His words shocked Shaurya as he kept staring at him dumbly. Is Priest Dharma trying to say that this had something to do with his prayer? But how? It was just a prayer. Right?
