Companions (Part 2)

After the incident in the bar, Der, Alesia and Gai'ha left in a hurry. In the previous few hours they had witnessed how, similar events, had started massive brawls amongst the cultivators, and they did not want to have any part in them.

Whenever a group managed to organize long enough to create one, they would mysteriously disappear in a matter of days.
