Jens Hector came to the capital the day before General Adelman and Cyril left with some jewelry for the clothes. He also loaned his assistant, Agusto, to be Cyril's assistant in dressing. In addition to lending Cyril his assistant, Jens also came to help pack the formal clothes he had sewn into a pretty box along with the wooden statue for display.
When Cyril suggested putting the clothes in the trunk, Jens almost let go of the hook.
The boxes were loaded onto the freight train after yesterday's packing and left before the others.
Today was the scheduled departure of General Adelman and Cyril. With them would go almost an entire squad of knights from the capital. All of them were knights who had served in the Varden Stronghold for a year or two.
