A random citizen that was trying to flee toward their home overheard the scuffle between Corraidhin and Fenrir where they questioned enough for him to hear as they made their way toward their house through the other citizens that were trying to flee for shelter, "Just what is that guy's problem?" The citizen questioned as they reached the door toward their house and hurried to get the keys out to open the door.
 
Ranathia only looked at the werewolf and the other man then decided it was time for her to regroup with everyone else. She continued to hold her scepter in her hand as she took the reins of her horse with her other hand. She then turned her horse around in a 180 degree angle and dug her foot into its side and told it to move fast toward the rest of the group that had already made their way into the forest in the south. Just as she was riding back toward the group Meira noticed Ranathia wasn't anywhere to be seen where she turned her pegasus around and headed back into town to see if she ran into any trouble while fleeing. She informed her father who asked her where she was going that she was going back for Ranathia where he only nodded okay even though he wasn't comfortable with her returning to the midst of where their battle had begun. Luckily the gates toward the capital were still up as it looked like the guard was still in disarray after what happened in the city. She noticed a horse riding toward the gate then noticed the raven hair girl riding and was relieved her best friend was fine.

Azmaldus steered himself in Nathan's direction once he let Meira go back for Ranathia where he informed him, "Come talk to me later. I have some things I need to tell you and I think what I say might enlighten your mind a little, boy." Those were his only words toward Nathan before he flew back into his group of Dragon Knights that glided over the forest. He knew that the forest they were in if you turned toward the northwest quadrant that it would take you to the Windgracian border. He anticipated that was where Drausius was taking the group since relations had fell through due to Aira in the Kingdom of Guardia. He also knew that returning to Guardia was not an option for them either. Probably better that they report in for Queen Erialyss and inquire what their next action should be. The forest was vast and wide with several types of trees that arrayed it perfectly in the pentagon like shape it formed around the capital of Guardia. Ereis Eisan was in the center of the pentagon shaped forest that stretched all the way toward both the Windgrace and Lumina borders in the north. Several beautiful trees could be seen and one that really stood out was the various cedar and oak trees that made up a majority of the forest along with some other kinds of trees. 

The Equevuan Forest was one of the many forests that was known to house other races such as elves, sylvan, gnomes and dwarves though most were hidden within powerful barriers that warded them from intruders and invaders. While they made their way through the force, Azmaldus did sense the presence of magical forces that couldn't be seen with the naked eye. He was curious though he didn't take the time to land his dragon to find out if they were havens for those races. The magical energy essence given off into the natural beauty of the forest and the fresh air that it resonated did make him question that fact. "Just as beautiful as it always was. Delmiund, you always wanted to protect this forest and I admire that trait about you the most. Your love for nature is most accommodating." He added as he flew his dragons above the tall trees of the forest trying to get too far ahead of the group while surveying the forest for potential threats or problems along the way.

"Such beauty mortals could never realize..." Were the first words that came from Siia's lips when she was awed by the beautiful forest below her which she rode above on her pegasus. She couldn't help to stare downward peering into the trees natural beauty admiring the great scenery she was being presented. One of Siia's favorite interests was the natural beauty that only nature could present to you without it being destroyed or raped by barbaric mortals that seek to expand their boundaries. "Delmiund..." She muttered the mortal's name off the top of her lips. She didn't really want to say the name, but the fact he protected this forest really amazed her to the point that she thought maybe there was a light within mortal hearts even though she was still a bit unsure.

"Delmiund, you grace me with such beauty even after death. Thank you..." A smile for the first time had appeared on Siia's face which disappeared quickly before anyone could notice. She then shook her head in disappointment feeling that Razhard's energy force was no longer present in the Material Plane, "I'm afraid your son is going to join you now too... I tried to prevent him from dying, but you were right... He was doomed from the very beginning. All I can do is make amends for my mistakes." She apologized to herself as she enjoyed the beautiful forest in front of her eyes while gliding over it on her pegasus. Drausius and his wife Ishtora both were also admonishing the view of the forest which surprised Siia. She didn't take either for naturalists, but perhaps she was wrong about them all along. The person who told her that Drausius and Ishtora could give new light to Holyoke might actually have some truth to it. Though she didn't understand why Drausius helped Ezmeralda conquer the Anzier Empire or was it part of his plan of destroying the Rudoria Kingdom later? She could only ponder that question since she had only read about Drausius and she didn't really know the man in person that much, but still she did save him from trouble and he was a trustworthy man if he honored her request. She looked off to her side and saw Lenna just staring forward riding off into the wind. The fact Lenna was from the House of Vashuna is what drove her curiosity even more. She wanted to know more about her.

Chloris and Luther remained on foot despite Drausius offering to give them a lift using his Mage Knights. Both declined preferring to enjoy nature's natural beauty while on the ground. They did their best to keep up with the group and not allow themselves to be driven away due to personal curiosity. Chloris was curious how Luther felt about returning to Windgrace where he just said without much emotion in his words, "I don't care. I'm only going back, because that is where my sister lives. Couldn't really give a damn about what happens to the people in that country. Their problems aren't my own and I don't plan to get intermingled in the country's problems either." Luther answered with a cold response that intended he didn't really care about the Kingdom of Windgrace. It was apparent the only thing on his mind was his sister's well-being. By his words, it seemed that was the only reason he was returning, but it wasn't like he felt obligated to return to Guardia since he didn't care about that country either.

Chloris sighed at Luther's coldness. She didn't understand why he was so unhappy all the time and had to act like nobody cared. She looked over in his direction and shook her head, "Can't you be a little more optimistic, Luther? I mean, you act like the only thing you care about is your sister. What about me? Do I mean anything to you?"

"Well..." Luther said turning his head in apparent embarrassment. "That's another story."
