Three hours into their voyage, Slimo finally spoke up to everyone in the group.
"Hey, do any of you happen to be friends with three random people that I am unaware of?"
Maria looked at him with a weird expression.
"Everyone who would be outside Iron Kingdom's walls is right here. How about you, Squabee? Got any friends we don't know about?"
"Hmm... No. People think I'm too crazy to be friends with me."
Maria scratched her head and whispered to herself.
"I wonder why that is..."
Slimo continued speaking.
"I keep feeling this strange gaze of malice coming from three different things around us, but I have no idea what they are from. Every time I turn around to check what it is, it's like its presence completely disappears!"
Lidia looked up at Slimo weakly.
"You're just sensing things. I haven't sensed anything at all."
Slimo rubbed his chin.
"Maybe you're right. It has been a long day."
