Hearing about the reward, greed instantly showed up on his face. Cail's eyes shined as he asked, "Special Reward?"
"Yes, a very special reward." I said, "So can you tell me what you know about this place?" My gentle voice and the reward especially soothed my trust in him as Cail nodded vibrantly.
"Well… it started, I think about a year or two ago. I was going through the forest as I usually do. Mommy told me about ghosts and everything else that the other village people said but I didn't listen to them. I am very brave so I don't believe in those things." Cail said, protruding his chest proudly and putting both hands on his hips.
I smile and nod, "Hmm, I can see that Cail is a very brave boy, so what happened next?"
"Oh! After that as I walked around the forest for a few days, I started to see some things… ghostly things." He said while crouching his face showing seriousness, "So I ran away."
'Huh?'
