((yay i got to edit that sorry post before you posted xD god today was long lol and apparently I got roped into a girls day sometime in the future o.-; ))
The mention of a trip home seemed to silence the group. That made it rather clear that there were doubts on everyone's mind. Of course there was. The death toll that beast they were seeking to slay was dishearting. Even when small armies of players banded together to beat this beast they were reported to have been slain. What honest prayer did they have? Granted they seemed to be better formed as a team compared to most but still.
Though this was when it was spoke up that they were coming back. "Of course we are, I still owe Felix a damned beating." Felix started to say something but soon agreed. For being the pest that he was between the magic and the blade. Besides that thinking that they weren't going to come back would pretty much ensure their defeat before they even got there.
After the long travels and finally getting near their final destination the group seemed to grow silent again. At the least the weeks before the group had tried to stay in high spirits. A few times Thalion purposely annoying Luna just to get a rise out of her. Almost too easy seeing how much she still hated the male. The nights were more relaxed, there was hardly any fighting really. Probably for the better in the event that they were spending their final days together. Though whenever asked about it they were so positive that they would be drinking after the fight and laughing about the fuss everyone made.
The closer they got to the cave they sought the more they noticed what beast they might be facing. Neimi had already gone over any information she remembered of dragons in this area and the gorgons. Either were bad news and they both had strengths and weaknesses. Though Gorgons were the worse of the two and the longer they traveled the more she feared thats what they were walking into. Maybe even a nest of them with a lead female. That would mean they had to face the horde first.
Seeing as it was the night hours Thalion went about his rounds though staying closer to the camp then he would like to be when making such rounds. But going too far was risky. Thats the last thing they needed was to be picked off one by one. Though tonight alone he had already dealt with a few smaller gorgons and a young drake. That hardly narrowed the idea of what boss they were facing. At the least it wasn't cold here.
After a few hours he finally returned to camp with a heavy sigh before sitting near Mizuki who still seemed to be up. Probably busy going over everything in his mind. That or worrying about what could go wrong. Probably both. "Ready for the final fight?" He said half laughing at the thought. Though he didn't mean it as their final battle together just as the fight in general to maybe get some answers as to why players were getting stuck in the world. Maybe what happened to those who died even.
