Penelope frowned a little as Crow pointed out that the plan wasn't that great as well as the fact that it was unlikely they'd be able to recover any of the stolen supplies. While she had already suspected that they won't, hearing it come from him seemed to make her have to accept it as reality just a little more. However, that didn't make her determination to find them waver. She still had to make sure that they weren't able to strike again. The image of Millicent flashed through her mind and the knight tensed slightly at the thought of such a strike happening again. 

She was pulled out of her thoughts as Crow pulled her closer. Finding his presence comforting, she leaned into him. "I'm not sure.." she admitted, thinking over how to go about getting approval to leave for so long. The knights didn't often stray too far from the camp and rarely were any allowed to leave for days at a time aside from scouts or spies that were meant to keep track of Younis. She could always leave without their permission but that would be rather risky, especially after seeing how Mia reacted to her disappearing for just one day before. 

"If I can convince my baroness that I have a strong lead that the thieves are in Aramoor, I might be able to." she told him as she thought the situation over more. "That last attack was brutal and I think everyone's desperate to get revenge, even some of the more level-headed knights so it shouldn't be too hard.. I just have to make sure she sends me and those two rather than anyone else."

Penelope smirked a little bit as an idea came to mind. "It might even be a good thing that we ran into Layth today. I'm sure he'll be quick to spread that I got my lead from a peasant so many will probably dismiss it or believe it's not good enough. Which means she'll be less likely to try and send a different patrol." It would also likely keep her uncle and Bennet uninterested in her business, leaving only Mia as the main person she had to convince. 

She looked up at Crow determinedly. "I'll figure it out somehow. This is the best plan we have and I'm not going to let them get away with what they did to my comrades."
