The decision of the elders

The group of knights chuckled. The large man being forced to ride behind another was quite the comical sight, and with Ser Galen's words added, the group could not resist a laugh.

Cael snorted, "Hmpf! When I recover, I swear by the elders, you guys won't be having a nice time training!"

Hearing Cael's threats, the group quieted down, their expressions changing as they considered the training to come.

"Now, now Cael, don't be so harsh, it's not our fault a grown man needs to be looked after in such a manner." Galen chuckled lightly as he jabbed at Cael again.

"Hmpf!" This time, Cael had nothing to say and just snorted in response. Seeing his reactions, Galen could not help but burst out laughing with amusement.

The group traveled slowly, and by the time the sun threatened to disappear beyond the mighty mountain peaks, they had reached the foot of Mount Crown.
