... had families to worry about. While he may be a trustworthy person at the end of the day he didn’t have anything invested into Alsèf. To the NPC’s Alsèf equalled home, family, friends resided there. Thus by provoking Maximilia he challenged the status quo. As with all things when the norm is questioned those who profit resist it anyway possible, resulting in the scenario before him. Good people selling their souls to the devil; in order, to protect those whom they care about. He’d be a hypocrite if stayed angry at them. His disgrace over Judge Jeudy ruled, “Obviously you are a sham. I should have you arrested. But I know you adventurers can weasel your way out of any traps.” Ripping apart the papers the judge had the guards escort Matt, Sòlana and him outside. “‘Twas foolish of us to expect this to end differently,” Sòlana lamented. Having seen how much power Maximilia holds over this city she and Matt realized their quest was futile. “Ya’ she play’d us like a fool,” Matt shook his head. “Shoulda’ve noticed it sooner.” “‘Tis too late now, let us gather our companions and march back to Sréyà-Hgih.” Quietly Veritas watched them part ways.

Can you cover for me, please?- -Risking Alastégielle and Androssa’s wrath no way- -I’ll tell you how to learn Airstep- -What’s the plan?- He was at loss. If he couldn’t use Alsèf as base of operation than what could he do? Inside the High-Elves training center he meditated. Alsèf wasn’t his, he was merely borrowing it. Like a Cherr-Pad he’d have to give back. Then what if he made Alsèf his. No this meant attacking the kingdom, his chance of winning this fight was low. Realizing both options were no good he wracked his brain for a better solution. Thus he found the answer to his question something so simple. His problems taken care of he considered it time to say his final goodbyes. Heading to HighSchlack way, the name of the main road, he met with both leaders.
