Maric paced impatiently on the hill as Layla lounged in the grass beside him while he waited for Samantha. Why did she run off on her own? And he suspected that she instructed the ferryman to not let anyone but her across. Luckily though, they had Layla.<br/>Nimue and Varatt had gone off to try and track Reigna and whoever helped her from the shack some time ago. Maric was supposed to leave on Layla's back with Samantha and have her bring them to where she landed with Faren last night. There they would follow his tracks, and hopefully they would be led to the prison so they could easily sort out this mess. He knew that Samantha wanted to help after all. The paladin even said she was welcome to help as long as she didn't try killing Reigna. But of course the girl chose now to be rash and run off. Because of her stunt things could get more complicated due to the delay.<br/><br/>Finally, Maric saw Samantha arrive alone with the ferryman on the edge of the riverbank. As she arrived, Maric stopped his pacing and stood with his arms crossed giving her a stern look.<br/>"Where have you been young lady?" The knight scolded. "I've been waiting half the day for you so we could go and find Faren. You wished to help, did you not? I've wasted a lot of time I could have spent searching just to make sure you were included as you wished."
