CH431 Hollowcrest Wildlands I
***
By the next morning, the expedition party prepared to separate as planned.
"My father likes to move around and socialises a lot. I can't be sure when I'll actually get to meet him. It might take up to three months," Kron Belloc said as he saddled a muscular horse.
"You have said that before already. I understood so there's no need to rush. This is about making contact with your father more than anything else. We still have plenty to do in the Wildlands before we can even consider travelling to the Celahan Empire," Alex replied.
Kron paused and turned to face Alex.
"The Wildlands is a blood-soaked land," he said solemnly. "Law means nothing there. Only the strongest fist matters."
"Don't worry," Alex replied calmly. "I believe our fists are strong enough."
Kron Belloc shook his head.
"It's not just about having power. You have to show it. Otherwise, flies will swarm you."
