However, in this instance, there wasn’t much room to argue with Riner’s perspective.
“You’re right. Let’s take some action,” Richard agreed.
“It’s probably wiser for us to act together rather than individually. We might have to learn through trial and error,” Kasser suggested.
The other kings nodded in agreement with Kasser’s proposal. So, Richard and Nicholas stayed put while the four kings ventured beyond the buffer zone after dusk. With the dry season upon them, there was a higher chance of seeds sprouting at night than during the day.
After they had ventured a certain distance from the castle, Riner piped up, “The seeds will sprout here.”
They found themselves halfway between the kingdom’s borders and the buffer zone encircling the Holy City.
“Shouldn’t we go a bit further?” Kasser inquired. Riner shook his head.
