169 Airstrip

Wolfe and Ella were subjected to a very long round of tearful "thank you" greetings once the healing was finished after what was supposed to be a short stopover, but which only ended without a celebratory feast because Wolfe explained that they had to go find the mundane army's airstrip in the mountains.

 

Thanks to the local scouts talking to neighbouring villages scouts, they said that they had the exact location marked on a stolen army topographical map, and Wolfe saw that he could take a River Valley all the way from here to five kilometres away from his destination.

 

The waters would be solidly frozen over at this time of year, and the bikes were light, so they could run straight up it in a way that the army units with their tanks and heavy trucks couldn't.
