Devageua snapped his claws as Sak'bas finished talking. "So THAT is what that noise was that day. Sorry, minor mystery cleared up, carry on. What? No one around here tells me anything, I have to solve things like that on my own all the time."<br/><br/>Sak'bas and Camilla were both immediately selected due to their training with bastard swords, and Anke was added as a healer would be necessary. After a moment grumbling that this was the perfect time for Serena, their departed gunslinger. Sydon was added despite Sak'bas' annoyance with him, due to the fact that he was best on the offense, as defensively it took too long to get him into position to help. And that left the last slot free to the only trapfinder they had, Nordri. He did suggest to Talia they hire another trapfinder, just so Nordri wasn't irreplaceable. Amvarean was quietly consoled about not being able to force herself to volunteer, especially after seeing her murderer flying about during the War of High Folly.<br/><br/>Done selecting the group, he spent the rest of the day helping set up plans for what the group should do if the assault group was gone for an unusually long time, before spending some time with his three children. They wouldn't be seeing him for about a week if everything went well, and Cynthia would be mostly in charge of them during that time. After that, though, the assault group met at the teleporter to Pitax, and began making their way to the Castle of Knives.
