148. The Man

"Are you sure? We will be travelling through various lands, some dry and some wet. This big carriage can easily get stuck in the mud." Sylvester pointed out. 

But, as he walked closer to check the carriage up close, he noticed a few strange lines all over the wheels and hull. In no time, he realised that it was full of runes. "Forget it. Let's just go." 

'So one can use runes this way as well? It must have cost a fortune.' 

He had noticed runes that should be able to make the carriage wheels resist water and inflict pressure on a larger surface area for a better grip. It was a strange use of very complex runes, and the fact that it was used on such a thing made him realise he could learn so much more from Lady Aurora than just fighting. 

They didn't waste time anymore and got onto the carriage. Lady Aurora went into the cabin behind and took a seat near the large window, from where she could also look out and talk with reinsmen.
