Why must we drag these civilians and wounded around? This quest would already be done with if we took a single squad instead of this group. Moon Shadow should be recovering in the infirmary not traipsing through whatever Faust-forsaken dungeon we end up in!

“I am trying a new way.” That is all the princess will tell me. I was supposed to be one of her closest servants, her confidant. Yet she keeps her own council as to what this “new way” is and why it involves such unnecessary risks.

I should trust the princess more. She has shown me a strength and a power I had never imagined, she has led me to nothing but victory. But now she looks so unsure, like she doesn’t know where to take her next step.

If we were just getting some artifact it would be done. There is something else the princess wants to find and I hope she does. The Dragonlands are a bad place to be lost.
