Chapter 23 - The Soldiers *Zero* (Stella's Soundtrack Challenge)

"I don't know why we're still looking. There's zero chance we're going to find him. After that blizzard, there's no way he survived. Hell, a demon could have picked him up and swallowed him whole. How would we know? We're never going to find him or even a hint of him," the first voice said.

"Don't let anyone hear you talking like that! You should know better than to question our Lord's strength. The Lady is certain of his survival."

"Of course she is. If he is dead, she knows it would be her fault. And I'm not questioning his strength. He didn't have his own strength. She turned him into something weak on purpose."

"Well, we have to keep looking. There has to be some sign of him. He is incredibly intelligent and resourceful. Perhaps he left clues of some kind, a trail for whoever came looking for him to follow."

"Any trail would have been decimated by the storm. We can't even track him by scent. Her spell changed that too. Who knows what he smells like? I mean, damn it, his body could be laying anywhere under the snow, and we'd have no idea. He could be right next to us, and we'd never know it."
