Fuso looked at Lystra, doubtful that she spoke the truth. He smiled and stood up to face the two girls, towering over them with a posture much like Kalen's. "I've been pranked by the clan's children for too many years to fall for this, kids," Fuso huffed, hastily guiding the girls out of his tent. Emilia grabbed his arm in a sudden stroke of courage, and yanked him out of the tent, hoping Lystra would help. 

	"It's the truth! Kalen is speaking with that murderer right now- you have get out there and help him!" Fuso's smile disappeared, replaced with a look of anger. His eyes tensed and he ripped himself free of Emilia's grasp, pushing both the girls out without restraint.

	"This is not a funny joke, girls, nor is it convincing. I suggest you remove yourselves at once. Go home to your families, lest I make tomorrow [i]very difficult[/i] for the two of you." Fuso pointed across the rows of tents towards the lakeside. "Kalen is fetching Kalo, who is, no doubt, training by the lake's outcropping. They will return shortly."
