After receiving Tessa's explanation, Anderus relaxed and returned his scimitars back to the sheaths.
"It seems we all on the same side." he said calmly, "My name is Anderus Fang, I'm a fighting monk from the 'Hill of woods" monastery that stands on no ones land between the countries, I will help you with everything I can."
"If it's dangerous for you to stay here, let's go towards the woods, you will update me on the way." he said to Tessa quietly.
"My warrior friend, it seems there is some kind of black magic curse laying on you, you look very strong but your spirit energy is very weak, you should talk to the monastery keeper about this, he is very educated in those things and might help you!" He said to Durus, as all of them started to move away from the castle.
