Journey

"Aaarrrggghhh! Let me go! Emery, Klea, let me go!"

The wooden cart shook as the man screamed. He was laying inside the cart, his entire body covered with Emery's healing paste and multiple thick ropes binding both his arms, legs and part of his midsection for good measure. Thanks to the grueling battle, he was weakened and the thick reinforced rope was effective enough to hold him down.

Merely several hours ago, the man was pierced by multiple weapons all over his body and it took the combination of Emery's [Spatial Gate] and Klea's [Enchantment] spells to finally make the Romans think the man had fallen in the battlefield.

"let! Me! Go!"

Ever since he regained consciousness, he had been screaming for them to release him, even threatening his two friends. But they kept on moving while ignoring him.

A few hours passed just like that, until they heard the sounds of another galloping horse coming closer. They stopped right under a tree and waited.
