By the time morning had come, Filthy had made it back to base. Geth received a transmission from Larz telling him where the next three rest stops should be.

"Is this really where we'll be living?"

"Look at this wall. There's no end to it!"

"What about all of those monsters standing on top?!"

"Is that an Elf?!"

Geth chuckled as he moved up to greet the man. Larz smiled as he saw his master's approach.

"Welcome back, my lord. The trouble I mentioned before is still hanging around the East Gate."
