Caius and I mounted our steeds. Lord Solus made it absolutely clear that my charges were graciously staying at his estate. A kind offer that he was sure my employer would appreciate. Nothing at the current time could be done with this arrangement. My best course of action was to recruit my old friend Bato. He preferred that name during his time in the legion. A rider raced towards us on a black horse. It was Favonia, Caius's second behind Elisaweta. The dark-haired beauty dismounts her stallion and bows before Caius and me.
"Master Caius, I have located Flavius Viducius Bato. Dietrich is currently observing per your orders, Master Primus," Favonia revealed.
