While his mother was building Lothur's fake escape route, he quickly arrived near the Imperial Prison following that level 17 woman.
Arriving in the vicinity of that place, he immediately ordered that woman to stop in a nearby forest where Leopoldine's border with Asken was.
He looked at Ice and said. "You must stay here. The place I am going is dangerous, and if you are with me, I will not be able to pass myself off as someone I am not." He gestured to it, trying to make it understand.
Level 15 beasts were not intelligent enough to learn human language, but they were quite intelligent. They could more or less understand what was happening in their surroundings even though they lived among humans without knowing the language.
Facial expressions and other forms of language were helpful for these creatures to understand their surroundings.
Ice wasn't sure what it was hearing, but noticing Lothur's gestures and tone of voice, it thought he wanted it to stay behind waiting for him.
