Travel was always one of the least entertaining parts of the job.  Sure, the scenery never did disappoint, if one enjoyed the beautiful but often harsh landscape of Illiserev, but packing to be [i]out[/i] in it took a little more than just a backpack, if one intended to be there for any extended period of time.  This would be one of the reasons Lillet didn't travel on foot, but on horseback.  It also helped things go by quicker.  At least she wasn't going it completely alone, this time.  

Lillet glanced over her shoulder toward her traveling companions.  A single bored eccentric and her butler hardly amounted to much of any expedition, but even a few people tagging along beat being alone.  Lillet couldn't figure Charlotte out, from the short time she'd known the other woman.  The blonde was warm, friendly, and outgoing, but she didn't really seem the type to be a scholar of antiquity, in any capacity.  The butler was even more of a mystery, and although Lillet couldn't quite place what seemed off about the soft-featured man, she didn't worry too much about him, either.  Any butler in Illiserev would certainly be capable in a fight, and an impeccable servant out of one.  

Their last visit to a town had been a day or so ago, and the travel since had involve occasional consultation of a map, and wandering through the countryside, picking their way along what small paths could be found.  "It'll be a day or so yet, before we get there," she called back to her companions.  "At least from what information I have.  Shame the weather's taking a turn for the worse.  Hope your brought some gear for it."  The multiple layers she was already wearing suggested she had come prepared for just about any situation.
