The Peak

Mauricio stood on top of a hill, the shielded village below him, where his and the Nightshade faction had gathered to group up before heading to the first big battle.

However, he wasn't caring about any of that for now, but instead just kept staring towards the sky like he was searching for something that only he could see.

At that moment, a member of his guild headed up the hill, and greeted him with a bow.

"Guild master."

"What is it?" Mauricio asked, not looking away from the sky even for a moment.

"Sir Ambrose said about heading out in a couple of days. He was wondering whether Sir Calamity would be joining us."

"I don't know." Mauricio said. "He is doing his own thing most of the time. Even I don't know where he is currently."

"Isn't that dangerous? Especially with the rising tension across the New World. If enemies from other factions find him, he could be in serious trouble."
