After a somewhat awkward breakfast, Darius and Gunner accompanied Shanks and Derek as all four were currently riding on a horse-drawn cart that looked more like it was meant for ferrying crop to and from a silo, not for people to sit.
The cart itself was quite large and spacious, also quite clean thanks to the efforts of some of the peasants of the homestead. As such, it wasn't a problem for Darius and Gunner to sit inside, though Shanks had invited their savior to come to sit with him at the front.
As Darius wasn't actually a noble of this era and didn't mind such things, he declined, stating that he did not wish to bother father and son. They might have things they wanted to discuss there, while Darius himself was interested in reading up on the Magical Method as they moved.
