[Powder Miner]

Lucette held out a hand to silence Michael.
:"Hold up a moment, Michael, I'm going to take care of myself.”
She turned towards him and almost casually tapped him with her staff - his wounds, being less severe, didn't require the same amount of attention, and she was beginning to run out of steam.
:"There... now you can steady me, if you actually want to help. I'll need you to grab onto my shoulders so I don't fall.”

[Sirus]

Keyleth looked up at the sky, considering, then nodded and glanced at Jack.

: "That could work."

[Blade Master Model 42]

Jack considered it for a moment, and then nodded. "Alright, go for it. Do not engage anything. Just find the fort, and regroup with us. If you run into another flight patrol, lose them. No heroics. Understand?"

[Twinwolf]

He nodded.
"Thanks. Right, right." he followed her instructions, hands on her shoulders. "Alright, you won't fall if I have anything to say about it!"

[Lucus Casius]

Ria scrunched up her nose and made a little face, but did, eventually, give him a reluctant nod.  Stupid, maybe, but at least she technically had permission to outfly them.  Even if she wasn't allowed to kick the crap outta them in the process.

:  "Fiiiine.  Fine.  Boring old fart.  I guess I can at least show off our speed, if nothin' else."

The girl shrugged, pulling her back onto her steed's back, and the pegasus proceeded to stretch her wings.

:  "One of you wanna come along?  Vali can carry two without losin' movement, though maneuverability might suffer a bit."

[Sirus]

Keyleth shook her head, though she doubted the offer applied to her anyway.

: "I need to get Skar ready for travel. We'll want to be off as soon as you're back with the intel we need."

[Powder Miner]

Lucette set a brutal grimace onto her face and wrapped her hands around the arrow shaft protruding from her ribs.
:"Gah... right... here goes, then...”
She bit down on her sleeve, and with a quick but painful-looking yank, Lucette tore the arrow out of her abdomen, causing blood to outright spurt out and drawing a half-muffled scream from herself. She sagged against Michael, his grip keeping her upright, but she wasn't done. Quickly, teeth clenched together, she grabbed some of her salve and shoved it into the newly-opened wound, causing it to heal up. Once it finally closed up completely:
:"FUCK! Nnngh! Fff... yeah. That should about do it. Damned if it doesn't hurt, though...”
:"We should be good to go now, Jack.”

[Blade Master Model 42]

"Alright, we're heading east. We can't wait here for Sharp to get back with confirmation of the fort's location, so she'll have to rendezvous with us down the road." Jack looked up into the sky, judged the sun, and started marching east. "Alright people, lets move. If you need additional attention, talk and walk."

[Sirus]

Keyleth directed her wyvern into the air, flying low circles around the party and keeping an eye out for possible hostiles.

[Lucus Casius]

:  "Right then.  I'll be back with the coordinates in an hour, give or take."

The girl took a breath, whispering something to her pegasus... and it began to gallop away, spreading its wings as it bolted into the air with her on its back, darting right past Keyleth towards the clouds.  Couldn't be that hard to find a hillfort from up there.

[Sutoratosu Akira]

"Evra Opus? But... it's been decades, how could you?" He thought better of his next words and promptly shut up. For once the poker face was gone, replaced with utter confusion. After a few moments though, and the order from Jack to move out, he seemed to collect his thoughts.
"Ahem... I see," He said, "No offense meant, but do understand... if one were generous and assumed you lied about your age to join the war effort out of patriotism, that would still put you...roughly in your mid to late thirties, at the very least. Or in a more likely scenario, somewhere in your mid to late forties, or beyond. Yet you don't look a day past Twenty-Five..."

He trails off as the group begins to head out, letting the obvious question here pose itself.

[Swordstar]

Rune was heading out and passed by the mage and archer in time to hear Calo's outburst and implied question. Giggling quietly to herself for a second, she quietly spoke up as she walked past the two of them,

"Don't you know it's rude to ask a lady her age?"

Not waiting for a response, she hurried up and found herself walking next to Theo. She paused, a small frown on her face and then commented to him,

"Look. I don't like your arrogance. Mostly because I've learned quickly that there's always someone better than you out there and you seem to be under the assumption that's not true and that's an easy way to get yourself and others killed. But we're going to need to be working together in this operation, so what do you say we just... Move past it and just do our best to be good coworkers?"

[Caellath]

While the group healed, Abelard had started checking the dead soldiers' pockets and making it very obvious they'd been picked clean after death. Since they'd killed the patrol, they might as well try to make it look like they'd been found by bandits instead. He even splattered some blood from his wound around to make it look like someone had been dragged away wounded. It was unlikely the military would be fooled, though.

"Marches are pretty good when you're under blue skies." he commented as he followed the rest of the group, sticking closer to the rearguard.

[I_Like_Pi]

Evra cracked a small smile as she answered Calo's question.

"A woman must have some secrets, sir Calo."

As Jack gave the call to move out Evra began her march alongside Calo. She lowered her voice as she continued with her answer.

_{"But if you really must know, watch me fight closely next time. If you don't scare easy that is. Perhaps you'll be able to witness it in action."}

[Ochita]

Elanee mumbled, picking herself up from the ground and wiping the blood off her using her robes. Moving up to a sitting position, she nodded at Abelard before picking herself up, tenderly rubbing her healed-over axe wound, wincing as she rubbed a particularly tender part, muttering gently to herself.
  "That... Wasn't the smartest plan I've had.."
Pausing to look at the rest of the group, she gave a small thumbs up to Theo, before sighing and getting up, ready to march at the side of the group.
