[He frowns heavily, looking sour. His eyes glance between the three of them, but then land on Stephanie for her answer.]
The place with the temple, they talked about competition, too. The people following a leader will win, but so will the leader. What does that mean in the long run? If the leader is trying to get something by using us as pawns.
