"I thank you for your assistance, Cael," he said, not taking the risk of stumbling on the fairy's full name. "Of course, all I can offer is my own aid in us all escaping this place. I don't usually work for free either, but this is where we find ourselves." His gaze briefly flicked over Alisandra as he spoke, and he pursed his lips in thought.<br/><br/>He nodded to Alisandra and Zabeth, watching the latter move off into one of the alcoves. She seemed to be taking their imprisonment in her stride, which was good to see. He knew from leading his tribe that the more people looked strong and confident, the better the situation became for everyone.<br/><br/>He bent down to examine the slab again, alongside Alisandra and Cael. He pursed his lips as he looked along the symbols, then smiled grimly. "Ah. I see what this is. This is the magic that summoned us all here. See," he said, placing his finger on a crude depiction of a horse. "This represents me, or my tribe. Maybe the other symbols represent the rest of us here. What do you see?"<br/><br/>Katul looked up as a new man stepped out into the cavern, and extended a hand towards him. "Your guess is as good as ours, stranger," he said, with a faint smile. "None of us know how we came to be here, only that we need to find a way out."
