"Mega!" Vodal Rrarshadal shouted when he entered the short man's office. Seeing Mega on the ground greatly worried Vodal. "Mega," he said, kneeling, and holding the man's head in his arms. "Please, speak to me. Wake up." Vodal felt around and found he had some water on him; gently, he poured some over the man's face. Mega awoke, coughing and spluttering, but awake nonetheless. "Winter?" he said quietly. This concerned Vodal. If the man thought it was winter, did he have mental damage?

"Oh, no, it not her; you are much uglier than her." Vodal heaved a sigh of relief. So it was a person he was talking about. Whatever.

"Would you like a drink, Mega? Maybe something strong, to help with the pain; that is, if you are hurt." Mega managed to shake his head. "No, no, I will be alright. Thank you, young man." He rose, and as he did, Vodal felt a slight breeze on his check. Looking in that general direction, he saw the broken window for the first time. He was suddenly overcome with anger. He needed to do something about it. "Mega, sir, it is apparent now how they have escaped. I will get all the sober men here together, and we will hunt these forests until these assaulters are found. There will be no rest –"

"No."

"No?'

"Yes, no."

Now poor Vodal was confused. "So, no, you don't want me to look for the scoundrels? Am I reading you right?"

Mega smiled. He had his hands behind his back, looking out the window with utter peace on his face. The breeze was blowing in again, making what hair he did have blow gently. "No. Do not go looking for this person, or these people, however many there were. Make sure no one goes after them. In fact, it would be better if you forgot this whole happening." Mega turned back to look at Vodal. Vodal was sure his face was one of complete shock, but he didn't care. This man was assaulted, by who knows how many men, had his building broken into, and who knows what stolen, and he didn't want to go get these people? It blew Vodals mind. So much so that just out of respect for this man he was going to go behind his back, just to find them. But he had one more question first.

"But...but why sir? They couldn't have gotten far. Why can't we go after them?"

Mega smiled. It was devoid of any evil. It was just a smile, though if emotion had to be attached to it, it could be described as a sad smile.

"Because, young man, Vodel, if I am correct?"

"Vodal, sir"

"Yes, Vodal, Vodal. Because, young Vodal, I know something. I know where certain eyewitnesses live. So thus, I can visit them whenever I want."

Ok, Vodal wasn't going to go looking for them after all.
