Roxa pointed at Unda "I'm guessing this is where we're heading first...?" He asked tilting his head to the side slightly with a sense of curiosity "If that's the case then it's going to be a long sail, and I would suggest heading towards Chalybs first" his finger moved across to Chalybs "I'm sure they have a dock near the Metal Mines where we could tie up, get supplies then move on our way to Unda" his finger moved again back onto Unda "From there, we could finish our job, sail north to Santo-Luce then march upwards into Crepusculum Kingdom, that would take care of most of the problem"

"Once we do get there we need to go fast," Kal started to explain, "Unda hasn't exactly recovered from it's recent war with Crepusculum, economy downfall, along with it's missing ruler has thrown that entire country into a political civil war. On top of that I fear that if these things are really from the Tower of Salvation that they may be gathering for there for alternative reasons, being how that's the home country of Duo Angelo."

Meanwhile in Ignis...
Riliath had spent the last few days alone in the Infernus estate, maintaining order in Ignis mostly, just trying to put the Kishu on the map but nothing he tried worked, a few basic mercenary contracts and royal opportunities were little and none. He wrote to Gensayce every now and again and would maybe see Van as he moved around but still nothing really happened.
Riliath was stood outside of the estate next to a small stone pot which had been an agreement with Roxa and the group, if he needed them he would launch a note using his ability to control air pressure and hopefully it should land directly in the pot, they had tested it a few times and it had worked successfully so Riliath checked it daily to make sure that no messages had been recieved, looking down at the pot he saw a small scroll and hastily picked it up
Riliath,
You're needed in Alberisato, bring ten to fifteen men with you, we finally have our chance. I'm near the Mother Tree, with a group of men called 'Allorums Guardians'
-Roxa-
Riliath folded up the note and turned to one of the guards "Gather up 13 cavalry men!" he roared at him "And suit up Kasai!" the soldier nodded "Now!" he roared, and the man hastily rushed off, with a cavalry unit it would take him about half a day, maybe a day at the most to reach the location the letter had guided him to... It was going to be a good day.

Roxa nodded "I think you're right, I strongly suggest we wait for my personal reinforcements before setting sail, it is going to be a long journey with many battles, and Riliath is one of the few I would fully trust to get the job done when it comes to fighting" Roxa looked at Unda on the map once again and nodded "What have you caused Kain..." he whispered do himself.

Kal motioned for Enizo, "Enizo, prepare your things, we are to go to Unda as soon as Kishu forces arrive." Enizo nodded and ran out to prepare as Kal turned back to Roxa.
"You said it would be about a day?" He asked thinking back to Roxa's words, "We have a room for you if you wish to wait here."

"Well that's assuming Riliath's bringing infantry, Riliath learnt to ride before he learnt to walk so I wouldn't be surprised if they rode here, I'd say to expect my forces within 12 hours at the soonest, 36 hours at the latest" Roxa said to Kal before nodding at his offer of a room "It would be preferable than going home, knowing my luck Alessia will talk me out of going anywhere if I explained, he scratched his chin before taking a quick step outside and launching another message in the direction of God's Garden "Have someone wake me when my men arrive if you'd be so kind?" He said as one of the Guardians led him towards the room where he'd rest.

Kal simply nodded before leaving too, Enizo was already waiting by the doorway like a young child just waiting to leave to Disneyland. Kal glanced at him, shook his head in slight ignorance then left.
Enizo grinned at the thought of going to Unda, My first real mission, rescuing damsels in distress, beating the bad guys and being a HERO This. Is. So. Cool!

The border of Ignis/Alberisato about 10 hours later...
Riliath had been working the men hard and they had just crossed the border in Alberisato not long ago without trouble, the horses were keeping up which was impressive considering that Riliath had brought along Roxa's horse as well, one of the purebred Ignisian war horses that he took pride in, Shaizal was one of the best horses, a dark black beast with sturdy legs, it was a little bit smaller than Kasai but boasted incredible dexterity and indurance. It was armoured in black plated metal on it's head, hooves and back. Riliath gathered the travelling would get slower now as the density of the trees started to grow thicker...

Enizo watched from the treetops as Riliath's men moved in, grinning at the sight of them Enizo quickly moved back to base.
"Kal, Kal, Kal!" Enizo called his name over and over to his ally who was sitting quietly looking over a map, "The Kishu have arrived."
"Already?" He asked getting up, "That was fast..."
"Well they're almost here," Enizo corrected.
"You should probably wake Roxa up. Quietly." Kal warned as Enizo ran off, completely ignoring Kal's warning.
"Hey!" Enizo yelled opening up Roxa's door, "Rise and shine, they're almost here!"

Roxa was sat on a surprisingly comfortable bed with Sonorc's dagger in hand, smiling at the fonder memories he had of the old man
"I am going to try to get out of here, before I sneeze to death."
"We do not know, until we find the answer. Once we do, we can hatch our plan. Do not forget the descendants still could be waiting to finish the job."
"We all got too much sleep, and we are all cranky. So, walk around a bit and stretch out."
Roxa, I need you to tell the rest of my children that Kain loved them and that he is sorry how everything had turned. He had always care about all of you." He pulled off his whistle and tied it on the dagger of time. "Never forget us..."
"Always remembered Gramps..." Roxa whispered, echoing the very words he had said on the fateful day, but still he didn't have time anymore, he had his time to grieve and he had used it, now he had to concentrate on the task at hand. Standing up he walked over towards the door "Let's go then" he said cheerily

Riliath's men all stopped in front of a large cave and Riliath looked down at one of the guards who seemed abit shocked by the sudden, silent arrival of the cavalry force, unsheathing one half of his large cross spear Riliath pointed it at the man "Roxa Sairen!" He roared "Where is he?!"

"Relax soldier of Kishu," Kal said gently moving the spear out of his face, "He is coming out right now."
Enizo came out first making his normal dramatic flips out of the cave landing right next to Kal, all why holding three bags of supplies. "I'm ready." He said smacking his fist into his hand, glancing back at the cave to see if Roxa was still behind him.

"Just so you know Kal" Roxa said casually walking out of the cave "That soldier of Kishu is actually one of it's generals, he is also a seven foot tall behemoth who prides himself in being one of the physically strongest beings on Allorum without the use of magic" he nodded up at Riliath before moving towards the one free horse that his friend had brought "I'm guessing this one is mine?" He asked with an inquisitive look.

Enizo glanced up at the tall man getting a good look at him, his eye began to twitch a little bit at the sheer size of the man. Finally he waved weakly at the man, "Hello my name is Enizo, you may have heard of me. Hero of this world."
He grinned a stupid grin before Kal gave him a warning slap to be polite to their new allies.

Riliath smiled down at the man darkly before resheathing his spear and turning in his saddle to face Roxa "Yes, Shaizal is one of the best horses I own, I thought you'd both get along very well!" Riliath handed the reigns down to Roxa before turning to his men and waving a hand, only five men had accompanied him towards the cave but another 8 trotted from the trees on horseback, Riliath looked down at Enizo and tilted his head slightly "Never heard of you." He said bluntly, if not somewhat harshly, but that was the type of man Riliath was.
