Ivory latched onto Sigmund's waist very tightly, while he gripped on the reins as they made their way to the border. The swift, clopping sounds of the horse against the cobblestoned road could be heard, and anyone who was walking in front of them cleared the way.
Soon they saw the Greensteid forest. They passed to the woodland edge, and in almost thirty minutes, they had arrived at the border. They approached one of the men who wore a border guard's uniform, who immediately recognized them as soon as he saw the black horse's emblem attached to its face piece. The Servant got down first, then caught his Master by her waist to help her feet reach the ground.
Sigmund gave the rope to the border guard and asked him to give it to Lucius. Ivory, on the other hand, talked to the guard, "I am Lucius Goldwine's friend, Ivory Sprucemint. We plan on going to Valios City right now-"
