No Man's Land

Birds are chirping and people are laughing despite the sun not rising as of yet. I get myself to go down the stairs in my riding gear as I grab some food to take along on the trip. Others are doing something similar and everyone arrives at the stables one by one.

Everyone grabs their own horses that they brought along for the trip as we make our way to No Man's Land. We start galloping past the scenery and arrive in the afternoon hours. Once we get our horses tied to the trees, we gather in front of the Duke and Duchess.

"Today, we will make our way across this section of the river that has the lowest tide," Duchess Inca says kindly, "once we make it across. The teams will be selected and then one of my men will sound the alarm to start the race to get these items that are listed here. Some are rare while others you will see almost everywhere."

Everyone starts entering the water and making their way across, the water reaches the knees as it rushes past.
