OMETOTCHTLI

[ Once you enter the train, it takes off...moving for only a few moments before coming to a stop in the midst of the void Delriza's realm floats in.

There's still no sign of the echo herself, but fortunately it's at this point that the rules of the game burn themselves into your mind, like you always knew what you were supposed to be coming here for. ]

You are a princess, and your most loyal knight will be accompanying you on a journey through the Rogue's Wood. You are travelling to the castle of an enemy while on a mission of peace. You are extremely confident that you will be safe, yourself, but that's only because you know she will absolutely sacrifice herself to ensure your survival.

You don't want that.

The rogues of the wood most often employ ranged weapons, and usually lay traps on the most traveled paths through the wood such as caltrops or bladed traps designed for crippling horses, or magical bombs designed to damage carriages beyond use, before firing on those who do not surrender from the trees and brush.

You are taking with you, aside from your knight, a decoy carriage with your court magician, who specializes in EXPLOSION MAGIC, a priestess, and five additional warriors.

[this is the last team i want to play with why this]

It would probably make the most sense to send the decoy and some of the warriors on one of the more traveled paths and take a less common one ourselves, right?

...That is not the answer I'd have expected from you.

...Really?

Sacrificing people did not seem to be your 'thing' last we spoke.

...

Things have changed a little since then, I suppose.

For the better, at least.

I'm not surprised you would think that.

At any rate, your plan is agreeable.

I'm glad you think so. Do you have anything to add to it?

[wow rude]

It sounds sensible, yes.

[nothing personal man i just don't like your teammate]

Should we just go with that idea as it is, or do you want to add anything to it?

[...which one]

It is fine... how many warriors should we send? I believe we should probably not send more than two.

Two would be fine, I think. There's no sense in putting all of them at risk.

Yes. And we do not know what challenges awaits us ahead. We could need them.

Exactly. We're going into enemy territory, after all.

Yes...

[oh it's you. . .]

Yeah, that makes sense.

[welp]

Do you have anything you'd want to add to that, then, or should we just go with it?

[hmm]

We could have one warrior scout ahead while we take the less common route. Just in case. What does a priestess even do?

[nods]

That's a good idea. And... I have no idea about the priestess.

Well, one way to find out.

Oi, Echo. What's the priestess do?

[ there's no answer

But you suddenly understand that the priestess is a non-magical healer. ]

Ah, we should definitely keep her with us.
