Expedition

It was nearing the end of summer. The floating winds gave people a sense of refreshment, but Ronning's heart was still filled with lingering irritation. Since his setback in attacking Fort Maxine, he had waited more than a month to reorganize. He was continuously waiting for information from Han Jin, but he still didn't have a messenger.

Guevara, Ronning, and Alexandre all sat together quietly. Guevara's experience was known by the others; Alexandre was a well-known general of Kumai. Ronning, though new and rising, as the leader of the Riptide Regiment Knight Conrad's half son, he received attention from Knight Conrod given Reg's lack of interest in the military, and was even taken as the inheritor. With instructions from Guevara, he progressed extremely fast.
