Once Evan Carter had recovered a bit, Paige Summers decided to have a frank talk with them. No matter who became the New City Lord of Southreach, they probably wouldn't have a place for them.
That was why they had suffered this calamity.
After exchanging a look, Evan Carter and Norman Ross immediately declared to Paige Summers that they were willing to stay and pledge their loyalty to Bloodfall Base.
Paige Summers readily agreed, making no effort to hide that this was exactly what she had been hoping for.
They looked at one another and smiled.
The young men recovered quickly, not just from their physical wounds, but from the psychological trauma as well.
Besides, they had always admired Paige Summers; it was only their former positions that had prevented them from joining her.
Now that they were no longer the City Lord's personal guards, they felt much more relaxed.
Full of youthful energy, it didn't take them long to integrate into the base and get along with everyone.
