"Some of my stupid plans seemed to work out thank you... " He said having a good point. One such stupid plan was to go into a blizzard to save a certain someone who was sitting here. "Thought you said next time you were staying home?" He smirked a little remembering that from not long ago.

He was thankful to be left alone even if it was only part of the evening. It probably kept him from thinking more on killing the next person to address him as his proper rank. He'd beat it out of every one of them he swore.. though maybe he wasn't being serious about that thought.

After a few days the last of them were leaving and Thalion had only stayed this long due to Mizuki recovering. Even now he was debating on leaving till Mizuki spoke up. "Fine.. your right." Though he doubted this was the last time he was going to be back here... Mizuki had stated things happen for a reason and apparently something wanted him to come back here.

None the less he had been using this passage to pretty much get everyone out so the odds of getting lost were slim to none. Though half way through the passage he all but froze before glancing over his shoulder like he heard something. His expression said he did but nothing anyone else heard apparently as Damien spoke up asking if something was wrong.

"Er.. nothing.." He said shaking his head a little at the crazy thought of hearing things now. Yep something was going to end up making him come back here wasn't it? They had made good time through the passage and getting away from the city. It wasn't till they even got to the meeting area Damien had been instructing them to go to did Thalion even notice that they had added at least a hundred trained and able fighters to the Western forces.

Sure over the days they had been getting small groups out but he never thought that.. they had gotten that many. To admit it was overwhelming was a understatement. Now they just had to get them to where the main camp was and unnoticed...

"You know why we got this many.." Damien started before Thalion glanced at him a moment before grabbing him. "What exactly have you been saying?" "Nothing that you didn't say yourself or do already mi'lord." Great he doomed himself... how the heck was this suppose to work?! He had trained as a average warrior and a blacksmith for all of these years nothing that came close to leading troops or anything beyond that.

At the least this made the West seem like it had a chance of winning. This made the odds more in their favor. Granted still out numbered by a long shot but these were not rookie fighters either, well most of them. Half of them were former knights from when his parents ruled.

It was decided that the group would travel by nightfall to prevent being seen. It was well into the second day of traveling before camp was set up again and Thalion wanted nothing more then to go retreat somewhere away from being expected to lead this. His nerves were about shot at this rate from over thinking everything that could go wrong.
