Jay readjusted his bag so that it rested on his left shoulder. An old injury made his right shoulder ache from time to time. Now was just one of those times, and there wasn't much he could do about it out in the open. Pulling his strap over his good shoulder, Jay nodded as Terran motioned for the group to continue moving. Taking a small breath, Jay pulled the hood of his cloak up over his head and followed after the pack pony upon which Jace was now resting.<br/><br/>As she spoke, Jay merely listened but said nothing. During the travel this far north, Jay hadn't been one for much conversation. A few words went a long way, as far as he was considered. As Jace rambled on, thanking them for their help, Jay couldn't help but chuckle.<br/>"A cave of wonders perchance?" Jay asked, glancing at her from under his hood. That wasn't the truth, but Jay wasn't about to call her a liar outright. Everyone had their reasons he supposed. "With a magical flower to heal the sick? Hmm." Jay added, looking as though he was thoroughly interested in the story. "Would that happen to be guarded by a dragon?" He asked curiously before smirking and shaking his head gently.<br/><br/>It felt like hours before they came upon anything remote to civilization. Taking a moment to fully look around, Jay suppressed a groan as he saw the red banners that may as well have marked death for him. Wandering over to Terran, Jay was shaking his head softly.<br/>"You implied that the Imperial's had little influence here." Jay muttered, keeping the majority of the annoyance out of his voice.<br/><br/>Crossing his arms over his chest, Jay continued to walk along side the man and pony, but if he said anything, he kept it quiet.<br/>"Now what? March up to the citadel and demand entrance?" Jay asked, taking a deep breath to calm himself.
