Noisy Journey

In a way, there were benefits to be had from the entire world being in utter chaos. At the very least, the elves' caravan traveling north had a much easier time.

What would be the fastest way to become friends with other people or factions? Simply have a common enemy appear.

Just a month ago, having so many airships escort so many elves through another country's territory would bring nothing but trouble. Even if a country allowed you through, believing that you weren't actually trying to invade them, there would always be elf slavers to deal with and plenty of governmental red tape. It would be quite common for the caravan to have to constantly stop. Having an easy journey would be nothing more than a pipe dream.
