[color=ec008c]"Very well Zack you are dismissed. I trust you that you will make it back alive. Ylisse needs every person willing to defend it."[/color] Alexandra said as she got up to open the door for Zack and once he was let out the door closed just as quickly. The soldiers didn't even bid Zack a farewell.

It was a quick trip to the Inn to get Zaku who was indifferent towards the whole thing. While he'd prefer to go to Ferox he didn't exactly complain about going. The three of them got together and bought some healing supplies, some new camping equipment, and made sure they got their weapons looked at. As usual all of them were in working condition for the journey which was undoubtedly going to be bloody. On the way out however Isabelle couldn't help but feel that they were walking right into something bigger. But she didn't comment to it about to Jiro only Zaku who commented he had the same feeling. 

After the group has left the gate they had taken along the road less traveled west towards Plegia. One of the gate guards informed one of the captured people had said they had set up a base in that general direction but he didn't know anymore or he was holding information from them. It would take longer to get more info out of him but Alexandra wanted the job done as soon as possible so she was not exactly unwilling to send people out in that general direction. [color=f26522]"So does anyone have any fun trail stories to tell while walking?"[/color] Jiro asked as the group trudged around the dirt road. Isabelle trudged alongside him and Zaku brought up the rear of everyone. [color=0054a6]"I do hope they aren't stupid ones if you all do."[/color] Zaku said dully as he kicked a rock backwards. [color=fff200]"You know I was expecting more talking from a group with over five people in it."[/color] Isabelle complained as she nearly tripped over her own dress.
