Arrests

"It's been an hour." Dion said as he paced across the clearing where they were resting.

Nicholas had asked Ysmira, Lily, and Connor to rest while he and Dion kept watch. They needed to get as much rest as possible before journeying on.

He knew that he and Dion could both sustain themselves without sleep by healing their tired bodies with their magic.

Connor, who had stayed behind with Nicholas during the fight, needed to rest after their previous trial.

"Maybe something happened?" Nicholas thought out loud as he looked at the town in the distance.

"Should I go after him?" Connor asked as he woke up from his shallow slumber.

"No, you could be recognized." Ysmira said, it seemed that she too had already woken up from what little rest they had managed. "I'll go, I'll bring Allen and his family back. We've wasted too much time here already."

Nicholas nodded as he allowed Ysmira to leave. She brought with her one of their horses so that it would not look suspicious.
