"I can catch you if the masonry crumbles for some reason," Venza says as they head over to the Watchtower, "and my lift is mostly magical in nature. Levitation has proved useful many times, traveling on my own."

"On that note though, you did pretty well, flying above the field like that. Everything went pear-shaped near the end there though.."

[Haspen]

@Venza&Rowan:

There was also a lack of information to be gotten from the tower; there were few bags, plus some food, spare clothes and equipment to start a fire or two. Not enough to set up camp for more than a single night, if even that.

@Johannes&Priscilla:

The Princess turned away from the river and moved closer to her companions.

"I'm... b-better... now. Yes, I'm fine - I will be fine." Sophia spoke the last part of the sentence in slightly more confident tone.

[TricMagic]

This definitely paints the picture of an ambush. And from their own planning..

They weren't set up to accost travelers, but rather, us alone. Which means..


"Rowan, we need to get going again. Let's go gather the others."


"The chances of this being a targeted attack are high, and no one coming back will alert them of it's failure."

Meet up with all the others.

[GiglameshDespair]

"Your first battle is never easy, your highness. But we all made it through in one piece thanks to you and your magic. Take pride in that."

Meet up with all the others.

Priscilla nodded to Rowan and Venza as they returned.
"I don't imagine you found much?"

[TricMagic]

Not really. Enough for them to make a day's travel, no camping equipment or long term items like rations. It seems to be as you said."

"At the least, they were likely here for us alone. And given we were traveling light, it points to your conclusion."

[SirAston]

"Which means there is at least one survivor on the enemy's side... The one who gave the order. We should take a quick rest and then move on in a hurry. Better to outpace them before they realize that we survived."

"In any case... You did well, Your Highness. Memorize what has happened today in your heart. Such experience can only guide you once you enter a ruling position."

[Haspen]

"We're less than a day's travel from Lichteisen's summer villa..." The Princess sighed and then looked at the road behind them.

"I, I, I think we should press onwards... yes, yes we will, we will continue to Lichteisen's family villa. Joachim's family will help us with this mystery, I'm sure."

[GiglameshDespair]

"When we get close to it, Rowan, have a look ahead of us on your pegasus. Make sure our mystery foe hasn't taken the villa. Now, we should move, as Her Highness said. I'll take the vanguard again. Princess, stay next to me."
"Keep your guard up until we're safe for sure. Let's go."

[Haspen]

The group resumed their journey towards the summer house of Lichteisen family...

~~Chapter 1: Cloaks and Knives~~

...but it wasn't even an hour later when trouble reared its head up once more.

"Rowan, you think Palewing is rested enough already? You could-" The Princess didn't even get to finish what she wanted to say when sounds of rustling bushes and breaking branches came from all directions. Armed, not particularily friendly looking men, have shown up in force.

"Oh, oh no... oh no!..."

"More of them? My axe will wear out at this rate."
As she moved up, she reached out to snag the anti-toxin, swapping it with the herbs she carried. She took the pill and chewed thoughtfully.
"...How unpleasantly bitter."

6,8. Trade Herb for Anti-toxin, use anti-toxin on self. Guard Rowan (but not against Dirtrobe, if it can be that specific).

[GM_3826]

For some reason Johannes was eerily silent.

Johannes: Move to (8, 7).
