Aslan had a good sleep, all things considered. He woke up bright and early as his custom and spent some time alone, praying. Something he does sometimes when no one is around and when he knows he is truly alone. When he was done, he headed to meet with the others. Which Aslan was gratefully surprised that there were horses waiting for them. Enough for all of them, and a wolf as well. Aslan liked most animals to be fair, but he always liked wolves, and having one with them is something he appreciates, even if he will not show it. 

But after listening to Brigitte's plan, which he had no complaints with and stayed silent. Now, on the choice of mount to use. Of the three horses, after seeing how Eirún had claimed the pinto mare. Aslan walked over to the other mare, the one with no sign of combat on her hide. He gently approached the mare and, after slowly putting his hand to her snout, so she could get used to his scent. He whispered into her ear in a gentle tone [color=#F0E68C]"Do not worry, you are in good hands."[/color] Which he got up on the horse and went to follow the others out of town. 

Aslan took the rear of the group, in case trouble came their way. He is not much of a frontline soldier like some in the party. Yes, he has a weapon to defend himself. Two actually, but he is more of a range fighter. Picking off targets at a distance or when the enemy least suspects it. Granted, Aslan's main choice of weapon is a bit odd, but people do not expect oddities in a fight, usually.  

Still, as the trip to Haldr was being uneventful, things got interesting when a group of Fenris Knights showed up. Things were tense as he could tell, as the knights told their story. While Aslan waited in the back, waiting to see if things turned violent. Did he hear Brigitte warning about the true nature of the knights, and it being proven true as the now known mage knights revealed themselves. 

Luckily for the group, they stay on the defensive after one of them used their magics to summon a metal sphere, and all metal would be pulled towards it. [color=#F0E68C]"Mages,"[/color] Aslan cursed in a whisper.  

At this point, Aslan had demounted and as the others were fighting. Aslan looked for a good opening and as he watched the others fight. Including a newcomer, a giant of a woman, but seeing that she was helping them. Knocking a knight away with her body. Aslan did not focus on her, and who she was would wait until after the mage knights were dead. Seeing one mage was dead, being brutally dispatched by Siegfried. Aslan chose to focus on the second mage, whom he was not alone in targeting. Eirún was first in that regard, and after her attack. Which the mage knight was still standing. Aslan went to aid her by bringing out his left hand, which had a mini crossbow on it with a wooden bolt ready to fire. He took aim and fired, and while the bolt penetrated Goldchain's armor. It did not look like a major hit, and Aslan would have to try something else to get a better advantage on Goldchain as he reloading his mini-crossbow.
