    ~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~


    ~~~(Location: Safe House in Greshina, Elven Kingdom)~~~


    ~~~(Time: 11:40 AM)~~~


    Everyone has agreed to the n and scouting assignments. Sally and I are heading to The Orvello Estate to see what they have in terms of security and weaknesses. Terox, Helda, and Le are going to check for additional information regarding the passageways that are under the city. Ashburn and Freskra are going to see about the security around the Pce.


    Hailey and Jasmine will find out more about the guard forces and what they have in terms of weapons, magic, and numbers. We all have our roles, and now isn''t a better time to get started on all of this. "Now that we know what we''re doing, gather as much information you can, and we''ll confer at the end of each day." This way, we''re always keeping updated.


    We''ll continue this course of action until we''re prepared for an orchestrated attack on all of our targets. "This is all good, but what do we do if we end up drawing suspicion? New faces around this area are bound to raise suspicion." Hailey brings up a good point and one that has a risk to it. There is no way to lower the odds of suspicion to 0 percent.


    We all have ways to cover our faces and make sure that our identities are hidden. "If you think that you might be drawing attention, back off for a bit and approach in a different way. To recon from the same ces each day. Break patterns and keep them random. It''s the best way to keep eyes off you." This is from my years of experience before my wish toe back in time.


    My eyes meet with everyone individually, and no one has any more questions. "Alright, let''s get this show on the road." Sally says anything before I can, and we all head for the door. As I open it, we''re all surprised to see soldiers and guards going door to door. Helda tells all to go back and find ces inside the house to keep out of sight.


    This is random and something that wasn''t anticipated. I doubt we''re the cause. We haven''t done anything to raise any suspicion. Not for this kind of response. Sally rests next to me as we both look out the upstairs window in our room. We have our heads low and make sure that we''re hard to see. There are more soldiers and guards than people outside right now.


    I have a bad feeling that we''ve been thrown a curveball, and now we''ll have to adapt to new circumstances. Issues stemming outside our control, and there could be more troubleing. There is a chance we might not even be able to proceed with everything we have nned for today. A sudden headache makes its way up the back of my head.


    ~~~(POV: Helda Vora)~~~


    ~~~(Location: Safe House in Greshina, Elven Kingdom)~~~


    ~~~(Time: 11:46 AM)~~~


    A leader to one of the squads steps up and has a rigid posture. "The Elven Royal family has dered a lockdown of Geshina and the rest of the Kingdom. Stay in your home until the lockdown is lifted. If you are caught walking around before 12:00 PM and 4:00 PM, you''ll be executed on the spot." The man stops his speech and steps away.


    He and his group make their way down to the next house, and now I know that we''ve not caused any problems. Whatever has happened, it''s not because of us. I close the door and head back into the living room. "You can alle down now! I''ve got news!" Multiple sets of footstepse from parts of the house and make their way to me.


    After everyone gathers, they all look at me for an exnation. "Good news is we can still scout and figure out our ns." Many are prepared to hear the bad news now. "The bad news is a lockdown has been enacted, and we only have a 4-hour window between 12 PM and 4 PM every day now." Cera grimaces, and other people have simr reactions.


    This puts arge anchor on any ns and actions we take here in Greshina, and since the whole Kingdom is locked down, something significant must''ve happened. "Do we have any idea on what caused this? This hase out of nowhere with no indication something like a lockdown wasing." Hailey gives her brother a strange look, but not something I haven''t seen before.


    That means we''ll be able to leave once it turns noon in about 10 minutes. "They also said anyone found wandering around the city outside these times will be executed on the spot." This is what disturbs me the most. While there are no homeless in Greshina, there are people that live in areas of the city that aren''t secure as is.


    Most jump between homes in the middle of the night to escape the noble''s enforcers for extortion. This has unwittingly benefitted everyone above the middle ss, and everyone below will suffer. "We can stick to the n, but don''t spend too much time scouting now. Nevermore than an hour at a time, any more, and the increased security will be on you." I agree that''s the best option.


    ~~~(POV: Blezikel Olyzex)~~~


    ~~~(Location: Deep in the Forests of Jelleria, Elven Kingdom)~~~


    ~~~(Time: 1:00 PM)~~~


    My sister and I have sessfully escaped Greshina, and we''re in one of thergest forests in the Northern area of the continent. Even if a search party is sent here, we''ll be impossible to find. We''ve been running since we entered the passageway, and only now are we walking to take a break. Olisandra is leading in front of me by a few steps.


    Mom has probably taken drastic measures to find us, and while our odds of getting out of the entire Elven Kingdom aren''t 100 percent, they''re much higher now that we''ve made it out of Greshina and into Jelleria. "To think that this forest is home to monsters and dungeons... Keep on your toes, sister..." Jelleria is a dangerous forest, and that is why we chose it.


    The monsters and creatures in this forest will keep anyone that mighte looking for us off our backs for some time. It''s a double-edged sword, though. We''ve already had to fight some powerful monsters, but Olisandra and I working together is hard to beat. "Yeah, something so beautiful can hide ugly things..." Such things exist in droves with the elves...


    ~~~(POV: Queen Olyzex)~~~


    ~~~(Location: Pce in Greshina, Elven Kingdom)~~~


    ~~~(Time: 1:25 PM)~~~


    They''ve run away from me... They''ve abandoned me here, alone... "GODS DAMNIT!!!" My fist crashes through my office table, and I slump down in my chair... "Why would you leave... You must''ve been taken! It''s the only exnation!!" They wouldn''t have left voluntarily. My daughters know how important they are to my ns, and they wouldn''t have done this.


    I''m alone in my office now, and there is no one here to care for me. I have all hands working on finding my daughters. Even my personal staff... I''m pretty much alone in this massive Pce... "The Resistance had to have captured them! How did they get into the Pce!?" My emotions and mind continue to spiral out of control.


    With the activation of my ns so close, having my daughters taken puts multiple problems on purging the half-blooded. I lean back in my chair and look at the ceiling... "Without them... I can''t start cleansing my people... I need them..." My will slips, and I find tears flooding out my eyes... I''ve lost my daughters... They''re out there somewhere, without protection.
