The sky was completely bright now. Thor and his complaining mercenaries had already left, escorting the villagers back home. The campground had mostly been cleaned up, and it was time for the rest of us to set out.
But, what happened was that Marie and Winston, who were both mercenaries as well, were leading the departure of the others. This was the majority of our group.
Our new plan was that these mercenaries would openly walk into the new knight domain lord's capital city, Starwood City. Obviously, a fully equipped mercenary group would attract a great deal of attention from the treasure-seeking adventurers already in town. Our mercenaries would serve as cover for the smaller group to secretly go around unnoticed.
