Capítulo 1285: Breaking the Margraves

"This looks good enough! Quickly! Ford the river! We have wasted enough time already!"

As Remus made the loud order, the urgency in his voice was palpable.

They had traveled quite a bit further down the river than originally asked by Alexander as they were unable to find a suitable place to cross at the ordered location.

Their main problem was since this river flowed from the hilly northern areas to the flat south, it generally got deeper the further down you went, away from its source. Adding to that also came to the issue of currents, as the arrival of February heralded the coming of spring and the 'great thawing'.

Rivers that had been largely dormant in the past two months suddenly started to wake up and cold, rapid currents filled the once 'dead' channels, making crossing even relatively narrow sections quite perilous.
