"Of course, Sir Isacc." Gesturing for him to follow her, the pegasus knight began to make her way through the palace. Keeping certain to match the pace of her companion, Thalia furrowed her brows and let out a quiet "hmm" at his question. "Well, a large part of that can be account for the fact that--"

Whatever she was going to say clearly had to wait, as she was abruptly cut off by one Champion of Naga zipping past her with such speed that she had to turn around to check if he was being chased by something. It wasn't until a few moments later that his words actually sunk in. Oh. _Oh no._
