I thought maybe Jacy came to check on Killian, but this is looking more serious as it’s highly unlikely the police would visit the site at these hours…nor would anyone else. So….is Seth, or White Deer, about to pay a helpful visit to Killian? Why, why, why, Killian. You’ve qualified to carry the pistol. You’re sitting in the dark, next to the site of two murders, waiting for the looter and/or murderer to return. Even the smallest chances of being detected, then falling into the same situations that resulted in the deaths of Healy and then the young student volunteer, more than warrants the self-defense posture. Even the Sgt yes going to think you careless and possibly crazy.
I’m so glad Jacy took the stake-out and helping Killian seriously; staying more focus than Killian on the agreed task, but then again, that’s the idea of teamwork. It’s also good that others are not suspecting Jacy and I truly hope that’s not just more red herring for that koi pond.
I hope Killian can find comfort in more training with Fletcher and by extension Jacy; maybe even White Deere may surprise Killian with ancient wisdom and an unexpected surprise in his own history.
