Preparing for the Journey

Greetings…

…The battle at the Bakurad Fortress is only intensifying as day passes by…

…Due to certain circumstances, I had no choice but to delegate such a dangerous task to my one and only daughter…

…I have specifically chosen your party because of your ages…

…I can't get into too many details, so I hope that you will understand…

…Please protect my daughter until you reach the Bakurad Fortress before escorting her to the rendezvous point indicated in the map attached to this letter…

This is a request from a father.

–Aurum Midas

Regis squinted his eyes as he finished reading the contents of the letter.

A slight frown also appeared on Pandora and Killian's faces as they tried to engrave the information they had just read to their minds.

"We understand." Regis spoke with a smile as he kept the letter.
