As Alex and Ana continued to converse in low tones while indulging in breakfast with the latter utilizing her senses to keep a close eye on her room on the upper floor to avoid getting robbed, Ulysses arrived, seemingly exhausted from his time out in the city.
Alex offered him a seat, and Ulysses took it with a low thank you before proceeding to plant his face on the table, letting out a long-winded sigh in the process.
Alex and Ana exchanged looks before the former inquired. "What's the update?"
"There's good and bad news, which do you want to hear first?"
"The good news is that I was able to secure a willing airship to take us to the Boundary though he only agreed to do so after I told him that he wouldn't have to reach the Boundary."
"What's the cost?"
"Ten gold coins per day. He initially said thirty but I was able to beat it down."
"How long would it take from here to the Boundary?" Ana asked with Ulysses replying.
