As soon as Ounephes and his troops were gathered together with everything that they needed for the journey, they headed for the eastern entrance of the village under the watchful of the village head. After moments of silence, Ounephes suddenly halted his steed in its tracks then made it turn around to face the village chief who was following after them. He knew that he wasn't actually there to escort them but to keep an eye on them in case they do something untoward the villagers that they will meet along the way.
"I apologize for bringing trouble unto the doorstep of your village, Chief Ka." Ounephes slightly bowed his head towards the village head who was taken aback by the actions and words of the noble in front of him, he was a bit confused and didn't know what to respond but he just went with what came into his mind first. "Don't worry about it…" the village head replied then bade them farewell.
