Fendros' threats were enough to silence the woman and child completely, apart from whimpers and cries. The wounded Talos hunters, despite their injuries, were still tied up and put into the back of the wagon, while those that had surrendered were made to walk alongside under the guard of Malithus' pack. They were all in lycan form, so there was not the slightest chance of them escaping. Altogether, four of the hunters were deemed worth the effort to take with them. The rest of those that had survived the fight were too injured to reasonably be able to heal without better resources, so they were given quick deaths before the group departed. 

Between Kaleeth and Malithus' pack, the majority of the group was in lycan form. Fortunately, there was no need to go near the roads. Bankorai did not have nearly thick forests to hinder their progress, and Kaleeth was more than strong enough to pull the cart over rough terrain. He was not nearly as fast as a horse, but she could easily pull a far greater load. They had picked their meeting spot as a place that was not too far from Viper's planned path, which they had closely followed, so it did not take them too long to reach it. Based on Malithus' maps of the area, they had decided to meet at an old cabin that had been abandoned for many years after its owner died. It was a small, two room abode on the edge of a small lake, which nature had been steadily reclaiming for years. The grass was overgrown, with the remnants of a garden inside a few mostly collapsed fences that was now filled with weeds. Vines and moss were growing on the cabin itself, and it likely had only a few years left before it too would collapse from the years of neglect. There was nothing significant about the cabin, aside from the fact that it was an isolated, but easy-to-find landmark. 

As they approached, Fendros would be able to see that Ahnasha was already present and waiting. She was there alone, sitting on an old chair on the porch, looking out over the lake.
