There was no way in the world for Xavier to prove that he was innocent of what was left of his assembly.
They captured him and tied him up the moment they saw the bones of those corpses that were inside the well.
Even Xavier was so choked to the point where he didn't defend himself, he just kept looking at them silently while thinking of a simple way that might help him prove his innocence.
Once he stood in front of his sick people and those who were still in a good shape he felt ashamed for being tied up like this ..
He remembered Yogev at that instance, he was his enemy and he wanted to kill him so badly for all that he has done to him but this situation got him to feel a resemblance and connection with him.
'Ah, this is must be how he felt when his people ditched him in the middle of the triple full moons ' He thought .
Xavier was interrupted by one of his healing mages after a while of discussing what happened there and what those mages saw him doing next to the well…
There was no way that they could believe him because he claimed to bury those bodies, when in fact it appears as if he sank them inside the well.
One of the mages said to him, she was one of the female mages that were so close to him during this period: " Clearly, this is the reason for the sickness that killed most of us during the last period, we have been drinking that water this whole time, how dare you ? "
She was holding herself barely, she wanted to puke so bad but she kept holding it that whole time .
There was such a weird thing about memory, because the moment that mage remembered the scent that was coming out of those corpses at that period, it was then she started to puke on the ground.
What happened to her , happened to most of them , they were all sick just because of looking at her .
Xavier looked at her calmly trying to calm her down as a result of that, she was one of those who kept some sense of reason, especially after the disease that spread in the entire place, however just thinking of what he did made her so mad.
"I didn't do that" Xavier shouted because now he was very convinced that she was never going to listen to him after this incident.
They were all looking at him as if he was the true representation of pure evil.
None of them even gave him a chance to say what he wanted to say, all the leads were just pointing at him as the person who killed his entire assembly.
They were shouting for chaos from the beginning but to be killed by their leader was not something acceptable.
"I just saw the well today, I am not the person who did it, all of you are mistaken, someone else did it " he kept shouting trying to clear his name .
And even when He was facing that horrible fate he just could tell them about the people inside the transportation center.
He didn't want to enlighten them about their existence and about what they were doing .
"Someone else? We are the only people left on Delwias Island, till the end you are trying to fool us, you are just like the other leaders, you are just like Rivok and Chris, and Yogev you are worse than them at least they were not this brutal with their people
"
Another old mage said to him :" What was the reason?"
He wanted to argue more with them but they were not going to listen to him no matter what he said.
Xavier stayed silent until another man said:" He deserves to be killed, he is not our leader, we should have discovered this once he suggested killing the people who showed symptoms "
People were still mad about him for that, there was no way he was going to convince them otherwise.
"Let's kill him, right now," One of the female mages said.
A lot of them agreed with that but one of the male mages said to them:" No , no , you want it to be this easy for him? No…. He should pay for everything that he had done "
"How ? it is not like we could kill him multiple times " The female healing mage said to him.
They were all killing him inside of their heads already so he just closed his eyes because he knew that there is no way he was going to survive .
That man said to him :" Well, there is a good way to do that"
"Do tell" a few of them said .
" he should be kept until the triple full moons " The man said .
"No….there is still another month for that," another person said.
" I know, here me out, be will be served just that water this whole damn time, he will be punished by the same thing that he did to us .
If he gets sick, that's good, we will leave him to suffer from the thing he created for this whole time, and if he doesn't we will just be thrown outside in the middle of the triple full moons "
The man smiled after what he just said , he was so cruel for what he planned and the smiles he got back from his people made him very proud of what he just said.
" This is a good idea, killing him will change nothing, we will end his suffering that's it" The female healing mage said.
" Yes, this way will guarantee that he will suffer just like he did to the rest of our people, killing him is just too easy " the man added .
Xavier opened his eyes once the argument ended and then said to them:" You are making a big mistake, I am not the person who brought this disease towards you, I have nothing to with it "
He tried to keep his sanity in check but he couldn't when they were all saying those cruel plans about him.
