Although Lancelot had become the new master of this Undead army, he had no immediate plans for them. The companions set out once more, leaving the Giant Zombies behind and continued heading toward the direction of Volstade Town in the west.

In the first few days after leaving Gorgiad Fortress, the journey went exceptionally smoothly. Apart from the occasional encounter with wandering polar beasts, the party didn't run into any trouble. Clearly, the fortress was the destination for the Frost Giants coming from the Garden of Yser, and the massive rift was just as difficult for the flightless Frost Giants to cross, forcing Kostcheqi's minions to choose alternative routes to provide reinforcements to the fortress.
