they were led into a trap

And Clives strong but hes VERY outnumbered

and also 15

The realisation is setting in

Hes about to sacrifice himself so Joshua can run

Last ditch effort

But Elwin, Rodney and the troops appear

Clives confidence as Joshuas shield would take such a knock until Elwins like

'Was he hurt?'

'No...'

'So, you did your duty?'

'But-'

Hes like 'I wouldn't have been able to get us out if it had progressed any further'

Elwins like 'This has been a very hard lesson, but now you know better'

Like don't let Joshua lead you on wild missions if you are not sure of the origin

Anabella wouldnt help because for once her and Clive would be on the same page

while Joshua is drowning in guilt

Because the only outcome was Clive dying if Elwin hadnt shown up

And that would have been on him

He'll be sneaking into Clives bed for the next week
