Halfway through the search, Claude had nearly given up. Finding a single refugee in the midst of a chaotic war was an almost impossible task.
The only advantage was that it was relatively easier to track refugees crossing borders, and luck was on their side, thanks to the Byron officialsâ diligence.
Finally, Anna had been found.
âShall we go see her now?â an official asked.
Claude nodded vigorously.
âYes, letâs go. Right now. Waitâhold on. Let me disguise myself.â
Abundant food, clean clothing, and medicine were being distributed. Soldiers patrolled to maintain order and prevent fights from breaking out.
The refugees, used to harsh conditions, looked confused, as though unsure whether this generosity was real.
Unbeknownst to them, these arrangements were made by Byron officials eager to gain Claudeâs favor.
The official accompanying Claude smiled subtly.
âAs you instructed, weâve said nothing about your involvement. Weâve also taken every precaution to ensure there are no issues.â
â...Thank you. I wonât forget your kindness.â
