~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Traveling through the forest towards Elenahiers Dungeon)~~~

~~~(Time: 9:19 AM)~~~

Ashburn and Leila are pretty nice people, and Leila's husband, Freskra, is a pretty cool guy too. My eyes fall to the side of Hailey, and Emerald is walking next to her. The Legacy beast has grown too big to be carried around. Now is the most dangerous part of her development, she's too big to carry around anymore, but she's not strong enough to fight off powerful enemies.

Emerald has taken after Hailey in more ways than one, and the green striped tiger has an attitude towards me. The same one I get from Hailey, and it's a funny sight to behold. "Ashburn, have you learned if any other dungeon divers are in Elenahiers Dungeon?" My distraction from the silence is stopped as Helda asks one of our new party members a question.

Elenahiers Dungeon is the place where we'll get the potions needed to change our appearances into elves. Since Haily, Jasmine, and I all look human, it'd be a death wish walking into a populated center. I know very little about Elenahiers Dungeon, on that she was one of the greatest mages ever to exist and created some of the most important potions used today.

Ashburn has his hands behind his head as we walk in the morning weather of the Elven Kingdom. It's a pleasant temperature. "From what I've heard, it's been blocked off for any adventurers or parties. Apparently, with the New People being here, the dungeon has changed a bit. More deaths have caused the place to be locked down." That isn't good news.

Not like every plan that's been made has lacked kinks. A great leader does not create a perfect plan. It's one that can adjust their plan to the changes that occur. "Luckily for us, the guard patrol is lackluster, and thanks to that breach in the border wall, most attention is on that." That does make things more doable, but I have a feeling something will go wrong.

Helda closes her eyes as she walks, and I can tell she's also making adjustments to the plan. We've come up with some good ideas, and we're all playing specific rolls once we have the potions. "What about the security of the capital and the Orvello Estate?" Sally grabs my wrist, hearing that name of the family that damned her mother to a cursed life, and subsequently her.

It's a hard thought for me. Thinking about the life she's had fills me with a rage that I've rarely had in my life, and I have to suppress my power actively. "The security has ramped up quite a bit, and the Orvello Estate has new magical barriers that have never been penetrated." Sally moves close, and I wrap my arm around her, giving her some comfort.

She's a strong girl capable of incredible violence and anger, but she's right to be scared of the Orvello family. Any sane person would. The family heads tossed Sally's mother to the wolves like she was worthless, their own daughter. "Are our routes into the capital still viable?" Helda impresses me more and more as I learn about her.

She has routes into every town and city in and around the Elven Kingdom. I wouldn't be surprised if she had similar things all over this continent. "While some of them are, none that you would consider the first choice remain. They've cracked down on the criminal underworld lately, and they're not slowing down anytime soon." The life and job of a smuggler...

~~~(Location: Traveling with the group)~~~

~~~(Time: 9:33 AM)~~~

Helda is as thorough as I remember her, and with the plan to get rid of the royal family in play, it makes sense why she's acting this way. While I'm old friends with Helda, I didn't expect her to make this much use of me. I should've thought so, given how long I've been in the Elven Kingdom. "Leila, what does the nobility look like right now?" Helda is asking Leila the right questions.

I don't involve myself in the political scene, and from the letters I've corresponded with Leila and Freskra. They're good friends from back in the day when we were all smuggled across by Helda and Melimora. Speaking of Melimora, she's looking as beautiful as ever, and I'm looking to bring up my courage and finally ask her to try a relationship with me.

I've been apprehensive given her general dislike for men, but since we've also talked over the years, I want to give it a shot. I'll just need to find the right time to talk to her and seeing how serious Helda is being. I don't think there are going to be a lot of openings. So when I see one, I'll have to man up and ask her. Make myself unafraid of rejection.

~~~(POV: Freskra)~~~

~~~(Location: Traveling with the group)~~~

~~~(Time: 9:50 AM)~~~

Ashburn is the only person I know from this group of people, and that's only from Leila and me sending messages to him from time to time. He's a really decent man, and I trust him, by I'm not sure I trust everyone else here. Helda and Melimora are people that Leila said we could trust, and I'll take the word of my wife. She's smarter than me when it comes to this stuff.

Cera and Hailey, siblings and incredibly powerful. Cera is the one that comes to our lands wanting to take on the royal family, but I can tell that he's doing it not for himself but for the woman that he loves. Sally, the girl that's ignited this entire scheme, but not on purpose. I have a keen eye when it comes to understanding people.

This information has been relayed to me, and I've deduced some of it on my own. For instance, Jasmine is an ex-slave, just like Sally. They walk and act the same way everyone has that's escaped from that damned existence. Their conversations about what to do and the planning impress me, and I kind of feel pointless, but my uses will come in later. I know they will.

~~~(POV: Hailey Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Traveling with the group)~~~

~~~(Time: 10:00 AM)~~~

Emerald has grown on me so fast, and it's strange. It feels like just yesterday I got her, and now she's walking next to me. Almost at the point that I could ride on her back and my feet not touch the ground. She's going to grow to be much larger than any normal taming creature out there. I don't know how big she'll be once fully grown, but I'm excited to see.

Jasmine has been extremely quiet ever since I explained to her how classes work for us players and how everything else works. She's mainly been focused on the bigger questions, she even asked me if we're Gods, and that's understandable considering the way I explained it. Cera is on my left, and Sally is on the other side of him. He's looking ahead and watching the newcomers.

The discussion regarding our destination has been an interesting one, to say the least, and I found it surprising that Cera doesn't know that much about the dungeon we are going to. Considering that he knows so much about everything, but this isn't halting my suspicions and probes of questions when the times are right.

What we're doing here... In the Elven Kingdom... It's truly insane, and I'm getting more and more scared as we get closer. My fears are not of my own well-being but those that can't respawn like Cera and me. We're the only players here, and there is a chance that someone or multiple people will die in this undertaking. It sinks in more with every step.
