The convoy advanced through the forest. The road had been taken over by the forest: large roots grew under the stone pavement, displacing it and making it hard to walk on. The road was originally wide enough for two carriages to proceed side by side, but now it barely accommodated one. Thanks to the advanced technology used in its construction, the road somehow retained its shape, but if it hadn’t they would be forced to give up on their advance as soon as they entered the forest. The stone pavement, set…-

The day turned into actual night and the forest was immersed in an even deeper darkness. Because of a series of events, the inspection party was forced to spend the night in the forest. The first reason was that the carriages couldn’t advance anymore. The soldiers’ carriage that was knocked over blocked the path. It was the first one of the convoy, so it had to be removed before they could go on. The horse died too, so its corpse had to be disposed of. The soldiers also removed the other horses from…

“So, I guess we’re leaving soon?” Roa returned to his camp, had breakfast, put away his things and was all ready to leave. The inspection party, however, was still gathering their supplies.

Grandpa Gry was very skilled at this sort of camouflage, so there was no need to worry. Roa went to take a look at what the inspection party was doing and saw a…

After she left Roa, Cornelia went inside town. Other than the large gate, there were smaller ones for the residents to use. With proof of residency, it was possible to pass the inspections of identity and possessions much quicker, so Cornelia and the others used it too. They were residing in the city long term, so they had temporary residency permits. Cornelia entered the city and headed towards the industrial district: she was going to pick up the weapons Bruno made for them. As soon as she did, she would…

The inspection party’s journey entered its second day. “Ehm, is it really okay?” “What are you saying, sir! This town still only exists thanks to your esteemed gryphon! Please do not refuse our banquet of gratitude!!” “Haah….” <Well! To be thanked so by commoners! I am great, after all! Mwahahaha!> Grandpa Gry was boasting, proud as ever.
