[center][h1]Situation Updates[/h1][/center] [@Delta44]: Spencer ran away form hte group with utmost haste! People weren't really back in hte settlement just yet. They were hours away from returning from their work in the local tunnels which they were digging. Her road to the plaza was clam, clear and only lit up by the occasional torches along hte way. Nothing happened along the way and her things were just as she forgot them earlier. Theo also ran after the vampire girl, catching up to her quite fast. [@ONL][@Sam12435]: By the barracks the situation remains as it was until now. No notable changes happened while the guards were preparign for the upcoming conflict. [hr] [color=c4df9b][center][h1]Sala & Vala[/h1][/center][/color] [center][color=c4df9b]Location:[/color] Barracks [color=c4df9b]Interacting With:[/color] Spencer, Guthrie, Vamon and Zara.[/center] "Yeah, one way or another." Zara replied to Guthrie with a shrug." I'm already supposed to head in that direction since I have to return back to the fortress, so I must tag along for a while at least." She confirmed with a nod, moving her sword sheaths back to her back with their straps, now that Spencer wasn't riding on her anymore. At the warrior's question about the bastion of humanity, Sala and Vala also turned their eyes on Zara again, focusing on her with questioning eyes, almost as if repeating that question themselves. It was turly interesting turn of events that they didn't qutie expect just yet. Well they knew there were other settlemetns out there, elves and dwarves since those occsionally show up between decades, but a place where there were people closer to the settlement network was a news for them. "Did you really expect the people here to be the only ones who survived?" Zara replied with a question to Guthrie and smiled." There are many out there, who knows how many actually, cannot be sure. My order lives in a fortress just about a week's travel from here. Beyond that are other settlements though the distance to there isn't exactly known. We keep contact with an elf community, but they are hte only ones who send messengers every 2 or so years. There's also a dwarven forge city far from here. That one I do know where it is, but it takes just a little over a year of traveling from the order's base." She explained with a shrug." Beside those two, who knows how many more are there just in radius around here. Because we cannot dig everywhere and know everything in complete sphere around us, in theory there could be a settlement deep under us, who knows." Zara added, finishing the positioning of her swords with a smile. It was important for them to be easy access. "We are 'The Black Sun', we've been around just as long as the church of light has been, actually longer." She stated with a shrug as if it was the most natural thing to do." The church has a lot to answer for and we remember it all..." She stated.
