The day to leave for Zanzan came on the first week of October, with the party first making toward Agnirat.

The huge possession consisted of more than forty thousand people, consisting of the twenty-two thousand (22,000) slaves Alexander bought, four thousand (4,000) mercenaries, and one thousand (1,000) Cantagena soldiers who decided to move to him to Zanzan, the five thousand (5,000) freed Canteganan slaves and servants, the seven thousand (7,000) free Adhanians and around one thousand artisans (1,000) and their families..

There were also enough supplies to last them almost a year, with ten thousand tonnes of grain, five thousand animals, and many tonnes of other miscellaneous goods.

"Um, I'll leave Hellma's and the Queen mother's safety to you. Please take care of them," Ptolomy had a sulky, reluctant tone to his voice.
