there's light at the edge of the darkness
Oh for crying out loud, this was getting ridiculous. If Loren had believed in the gods—yes, they were real, but that didn’t mean he had to believe in them—he might’ve been driven to praying by this experience. However, he didn’t, and he wasn’t in a particularly hopeful or optimistic mood. Given that Amalia didn’t trust him and had obviously taken point in this endeavor, the summoner was just going to stay where he was, a safe distance away from the Prince and the baker. However, if the Prince didn’t take the amulet soon, the Launceleyn might just take matters into his own hands. Except not literally, because the dumb Prince wouldn’t let Loren do that.
