The only good news for this group following Andrew and his companions is that in a couple of days, they would reach the city of Agua, which is an obligatory passage to the country of Rios, and then their mission would end.
The Limares family, being the second most powerful family in Catarea, obviously had people established in the large cities of the country. The capital was obviously their center of operations, but in the cities of Valle and Agua, they were also present and powerful.
Being border cities that had a lot of trade and an influx of people, it was necessary for them to have trustworthy people to develop there, since they could not be the second most powerful family in Catarea, without a presence in these cities.
Once they reached the city of Agua, this group could return to the fortress bordering Dunnas and the Limares family staff in the city of Agua would take over.
