*Arthur had been transversing the continent for about 7-8 hours now. He was well away from New Salvainia, but still was cautious every time he'd seen a soldier patrol walk by on the roads. There was even an incident where there were no trees in the surrounding area to hide behind as he walked a path, so he pulled his cloak even further past his face, well covering his eyes and nose. He couldn't see in front of him, but he trusted his navigational senses to follow the path, hoping he wouldn't bump into them. He was lucky; that encounter had gone by without any troubles or complications. He had also passed by a Salvainian fort-base, where he swiftly ran by during the night. Apparently, this fort was one of the outermost Salvainian occupations in the continent, and going past it would mark the beginning of the Silnarian Empire's territory.*

*Arthur pondered this for a moment before he sprinted past. For the past 7 years, he had been living in peace in the Salvainian Empire, which was generally accepting of his Kitsune features. The Elves, however, although few, scorned and scoffed at him for the most part. And Arthur was stepping into their homeland. Shuddering at the thought of having to live the rest of his life as an outcast, he decided that it'd be a better option than having to face bounty hunters left and right in Salvainia. By now, there were probably hordes upon hordes of hopeful New Sunlight guild members hunting for his head, for the 150 gold bounty. With that, he began wondering what Mevis and Hitoshi were doing as of now; they were probably off doing some quest together, most likely at the level for squires. Maybe they were even trying to clear his name... A noble, but most likely useless attempt. After all, once the government found out that he'd assassinated Cornelius, there'd be even more coming after him.*

*As he walked past, he arrived at a large open plain, free of trees and the like. The path also widened until it was no more, as well. He had been told by his employer via a letter to meet him there, along with any other hopefuls wanting to tag along.*

*Nox had received the letter late, and when he figured out that the time for the appointment was only a day from when he first read the letter, he Immediately mounted on one of the random horses in the garrison. He was going to have to ride day and night from Huiruor Iluot to the Vuuntuta Steppes. Such an excursion would tire out his horse, a risk he was not going to take. Mentally he tried to piece together all he knew about the mysterious employer and whether or not he would be a huge impediment to his own plans as he rode. While travelling, he would often take his mask off, letting the wind blow on his face. He' wasn't on a task just yet; no need for fear or intimidation.*

*Nox, having lost track of time would feel that he arrived in the Vuuntuta Steppes in a flash but in reality it took him a day an a half.*

*Arthur would have lied down on his backpack, having walked into the clearing a good amount into the Steppe. Taking a piece of bread from his backpack, he absentmindedly ate it, staring at the sky above him. How many days was it since he said his final goodbyes to Mevis and Hitoshi? A full day already, huh? He remembered having to restock on some bread before he started venturing TOO deep into the woods, so he checked his timepiece as per usual. 11:37, and judging by the sun's position, it was obviously in the morning. He decided to take a nap before he met with his employer, and possible teammates. Just as he began to sleep, however, he saw a tall, black figure riding on a horse towards him. Slowly, the figure expanded until it was about 2 meters away from Arthur, robed in all black cloth, mask at its side. He recognized that mask; it was Nox. Unusually, it was taken off, but Arthur paid no mind to that as he got up and held his hand out for Nox to shake.*

"So, we meet again, eh? Nox?"
