Athena looked over at the map. She pointed to the spot they'd been heading towards.
"Any ideas on what might be waiting for us there?" She asked.
"We could be meeting friends and enemies. All at the same time," Zicheng mused.
Everyone looked to him for an explanation.
He carefully pointed out that though they were being misled, they were still in the vicinity of the capital.
"Are you saying we should perhaps try to find some allies in the capital?" Athena pondered.
"That is a good direction to take. Unfortunately, we don't know who's our friend in the capital," Zicheng added.
"You've been here before. Are there any contacts you might have that could help?" Athena asked him in return.
Zicheng sighed as he shook his head. Unfortunately, things were messy in Keltin. He could not rely on any of his contacts.
"My hands are tied, I'm afraid, princess," He said apologetically.
