It was easy to tell Emily was beyond tired, but there was nothing he could do to remedy this. Nothing short of slipping her a herbal mix or some form of potion to force her to sleep or at least relax. If they didn't make it to this so called town soon he was going to have to force his hand to do just that. If she stayed up for too long she would be useless if they found themselves in any sort of situation. They couldn't afford that, on the same note no rest meant that she could get no training in and there was the chance of her falling ill causing further issues and complications.

But the thought of having to force her to rest at some point or another died as she spoke up saying they had a few mere hours left to get to the next town. That was some of the best news he could have heard all day, surely she would rest there or at least relax. If she was still uneasy about what had happened before he could offer to give her space, they didn't have to rush and leave a town that was large enough to hold its own against the Queen. Besides there was always something he could find to occupy himself with.

About the time he was going to speak up saying that they should keep moving then to make the best of their time, Emily seemed to ask if Alton had seen anything. This worried him a little, maybe she was worse off then he thought. She seemed to dismiss it as her being tired as well, so long as she didn't complain about seeing anything for the remainder of their trip he wouldn't fret of this issue. "well... lets get going before you start talking about seeing unicorns eh?"

Of course there were unicorns but the odds of them running into any where about as off the wall as her asking if he had seen a light. But the remark he had made was just a joke. She needed rest and they both knew it. Three hours, if all went well they could make it to the town before something bad happened, or before someone found out Emily was out here.

Luck indeed did seem to be with them, at least for a little while. They made the last few hours of the journey with no mishaps and without stopping. Getting inside the town seemed to be another story though... indeed it was a larger town and it had a good number of guards posted to protect it's walls and gates. It was also very clear it was a light elf city... This still never bothered Alton at all, so long as Emily was out of harms way he could care less if he ever entered the town. Maybe the other thought he had was he would rather not enter if it meant he was going to be watched around the clock and questioned as to what he was doing.
