"But I can take you there on my hor- They're gone... well. What are we supposed to do now? Are we gonna follow them?" Anja suddenly woke up.

"Oh, oh, I just remembered something!" She hopped down from the wagon.

"I will be back in some time! Don't leave without me! Take care of the wagon, by the way!" And then she ran away in opposite direction to Gregor and Charlotte.

Charlotte&Gregor:

A lengthy moment later...

When Charlotte and Gregor got to the Road's End and entered it, there was no sign of Mannan... and then, in the corner, they could see a blue-haired lady in purple armor going upstairs, seemingly following someone.

Nah, he wouldn't leave his Leo in the dark. But he might've repaid your monetary kindness with item c:

As far as I remember, healers can revive on their own once per level.

It happens so often with you guys that I got used to eet :3

Dalban let out a sigh and then moved up to Gregor.

"Gregor, I need to borrow some coinage. Fifty coins, perhaps."

"Fine with me. You could even give me a pouch of coins and I'm sure I could find a cheap horse and even cheaper sword. But that's when we get to Fezzan."

The journey, even if tense, wasn't disrupted by anything.

They've passed the gates, and the guards didn't stop them.

They got to a small plaza in front of an inn, and there was no wanted posters for them on the nearby post.

"Well, that's that. I will now go and find my sister. Hopefully she is already at the keep. I will be back in a moment." With that, Matilda stepped from the wagon and rushed toward the city center. Dalban left the wagon as well and looked at Chris.

"That sword of yours... looks a bit bulky for a spy." He nodded toward lancereaver.

"No I can't! Remember that messenger guy? He never returned the one I gave him!"

Dalban let out a sigh.

"Uh, allright. A horse... I need to get a weapon as well just in case. Fists don't do well against bandits, assasins and other folk."

@Seyena:

"I and Leo haven't been at the castle for eight years by now. I hardly remember things back there, especially given we left in our teens."

@Charlotte&Gregor:

Dalban looked half-shocked, half-terrified.

"Woah, Lady Prixima was... well a little eccentric as far as I remember, but she wasn't really dabbler in massacres or arcane stuff like Dragonstones. That's, hmm. That changes a lot of things. I and Leo have been assaulted just shortly after we decided to head home, and that was... uh, three months by now? If Lady Prixima went crazy it could be her thugs, or maybe someone feared our return to Kesselring... I left him with some mercenaries, then things turned worse. I got captured and the only rumor about him was that he headed toward Mercia."

"I'm not sure how he will react if he finds out about this whole affair in wrong way. He could rush to her side with the mercenaries I left him with and even more hired men from Mercian guilds. Dammit, I have to find him, somehow... Do you have a spare horse?"
