Jarrod was surprised to see the sudden usage of faith in him by these complete strangers. He signed inwardly. He supposed that if these were his new allies now, he'd have to stop seeing them as strangers, now would he? And it made sense why they'd look up to him. Out of them all, he was the only one who has encountered Yggdrasil personally. He grimaced. Why him?

"Well. . .this is unexpected. I guess I'm the really the leader then, heh." He scratched his head in embarrassment, a bad habit that he was beginning to pick up. But who cared? He had a fellowship now. A guild you could say. Or perhaps it was just best to say team then. "So, uh, any clue where we start? Rumors say Yggdrasil is heading towards the Central Region. The closest route there is through the mountains of the North Region."
