Estelle's hand reached out to Dante, with a firm grip on his wrist, she prevented him from drawing his blade.

Dante passed Estelle a questioning look but she shook her head slightly and he relented.

At the same time, she moved her cloak slightly so that hilt of her dagger was exposed for a brief moment.

It was only a brief moment but Estelle knew the soldier had caught sight of it because he immediately stepped back and cleared his throat.

The group trooped out of Fort Blazed and the gates were soon closed shut behind them while they continued their journey down the path leading away from Fort Blazed under the cover of darkness.
