Third person POV
Along the way to the fortified city, Prince Nicholas wore a black hood and pretend to be stranger who doesn't like to talk to anyone in order to conceal his identity from anyone. In doing so, he would avoid getting unwanted attention from people. Nicholas explained this to Russell and the others, in which they agreed without a doubt. Not long after, the bus stopped at a market street in Inner District, Fort Right to wait for any potential passengers. And then, many people boarded the bus but not trying to talk to Nicholas, who was hooded to avoid getting unwanted attention. Russell explained to them under the guise that the hooded person hates conversations with strangers, much to Nicholas' relief. After that, Russell, who had placed a wooden sign that says Marewell Town yesterday, closed the door and left Fort Right for Marewell Town, which was 14 kilometers away in the southeast direction.
Along the way, the people on board were confident and comfortable that they will arrive at their destination in such a short time. Russell's speed in driving his bus in this route is around 50 kilometers per hour.
Later, at 8:11 a.m., the bus arrived at Marewell Town, and Russell pulled over in a street overlooking a beach and coastal boardwalk and opened the door. "Okay, we're here, everyone, that'll be 6 gold coins, 10 silver coins, or 14 copper coins for the individual fares, please." Nathan was excited and positive to see his hometown again, while Azalea was curious about that place since she never went there before.
Nicholas, meanwhile, was interested under his hood, wanting to spend some time with Russell and his group for the day, too.
Adrian, at this time, was at the palace in Rossley studying to be a prince of the country.
