Dealing with such an influx of new members was no easy task. At first, Jake was mentally prepared for it, but few of them agreed to join the Myrtharian Nerds on the spot after their rescue.

Each of Lucia and Gerulf's fellow warriors were the elite of the elite of their respective races and would not bow to just anyone, not even the friend of their beloved princess.

The positive counterpart was that there were very few casualties. Of the 2638 people to be rescued, only 19 remained missing and only 7 deaths were definitively confirmed. Hence, they had successfully rescued 2612 people.

All in all it was a great achievement, far exceeding the pessimistic goals that Jake had set for himself. This wonderfully optimistic outcome was no mere fluke.

In fact, as Jake had quickly realized when he rescued those sullen veterans, most of them would eventually have found their way to Lucia without anyone's help. Even the Beskyrians Jake thought were in danger had their own way of surviving.
