Jayde had been knocked unconscious by the explosion, when she came to she heard she heard the sounds of many people moving the rubble away, looking around her she saw that somehow she had been saved. The area around her was clear all the debris seemed to be near the front of the library.
Edvard hadn't fared so well. His legs were trapped beneath some lumber, and he was still unconscious.
Hearing the clan elders and her father's voice shouting for more people to help with the clearing of the rubble, Jayde trembled in fear and her eyes filled with tears. She was done for. With this thought running through her mind, she was filled with the desire to escape.
Like a cornered rat, she looked around frantically, finally seeing that one of the windows in the rear wall was broken, she carefully made her way to it, scrambling through. It was a tight fit but she made it through.
Lucky for Jayde the library was near a deserted courtyard and Jayde managed to sneak her way into the deserted yard without anyone being aware.
With it being Restday, most of the slaves and servants had already left the Freehold Estate to enjoy their day off, and those that were still in the Estate had already been called to help with moving the debris away at the library.
With a clear path, Jayde made her were way back to the slave pits. Knowing that staying at the Freehold Estate would lead to certain death, Jayde hurried into her small shack and quickly packed up the stolen food that she had hidden away.
Years ago Jayde had discovered a small fox hole, hidden behind some bushes in a secluded area, she often snuck out as the area bordering the north side of the estate lead to a small forest, which she would sneak into to find food. There were quite a few berries, nut and root vegetables that she was able to harvest. It was the only way that she had survived up until now.
If she could make it through the small forest, she had a clear shot to the mountains, which lead directly to the Dark Forest. While the Dark Forest was considered one of the most dangerous places in the Lower Realm, at least in the Dark Forest she would have some slim chance of surviving.
With an escape plan in mind, Jayde made her way to the fox hole. Squeezing her tiny body into the hole, Jayde wiggled her way through. Exiting from the fox hole Jayde didn't wait around she immediately started running North – her only goal to reach the Dark Forest.
But unknown to Jayde while she was running through the small forest, the people gathered to clear rubble had made their way to Edvard. Edvard father Kato, Za'thul younger brother and Jayde's second uncle was upset at the condition of his beloved son, after making certain that his injuries weren't serious, he sent Edvard off to the clan doctors to heal.
Zenyeh had a more important issue to worry about now, why was his son in the library and what did he have to do with the explosion. With the elders demanding to know what had happened, looking at the black face of his eldest brother, Kato was anxious and quickly walk up to his eldest brother.
"Clan Leader, Edvard has been sent to the medical hall, once he wakes up we will be able to find out what happened," he said nervously.
"mmm" Za'thul then turned around and pointed to one of the guards "Go to the medical hall, call me when my nephew is awake"
The guard turned away and hurried to the medical hall, just then one of the servants let out a loud gasp attracting Za'thul attention.
"What?" he growled.
"M...m-y Lord, the golden tome case has been smashed" the servant stammered.
Flashing to the servant side, Za'thul looked down and saw the broken glass, a small pool of blood, and the broken case, scanning around him he did not see the golden tome.
"Where is the Divine tome?" he yelled.
Za'thul shout drew the attention of all the elders, and they rushed to his side. Everyone began looking around, meanwhile, Kato knowing that this was a much bigger disaster than he was expecting, quickly ran off to the medical hall. He had to speak to his son first.
"What the hell happened?" he thought to himself, that spoilt little brat has he any idea just what a catastrophe he had involved the family in.
