Two men came up behind the tree. They looked at each other. "Denny, he's not here no more!" The first said to the second. "What're we gonna do now?"
"Shuddup Benny, I'm thinkin'." Denny looked at the sleeping couple. "Well, da boss said this needed to be gone when we came back, so why not just dump it on these two?" He held up a small container of strong sleeping powder. "These two are more of a threat anyway."
Benny looked excited. "Yes! Yes! Let's do it!"
Denny dumped the Ember-sized portion onto Dain and Friesia. He looked at his work and was satisfied. "These two won't be waking up anytime soon..." He chuckled maliciously, and the two went on their way.
