Grey's entourage grew from the few survivors he rescued to just over twenty people. About fifty kilometers away from where the last oasis before the city was located, Grey halted their movements due to the information he received from the bunny leader's scouts that were scouting the road ahead.
The Gnomes had taken over the oasis in large numbers. Grey could tell the Gnomes were taking their time before they attacked the city.
'Looks like we'll have to take a detour.'
He looked at the group behind him and asked, "We'll have to go around that oasis, I'm not familiar with this region so I'd like one of you to lead the way."
A young lady stepped forward from the group, she looked to be in her mid twenties and was at the Peak of the Venerable Plane, after a quick bow she said, "I'm very familiar with this area, if you don't mind I can lead the way."
"Please." Grey motioned for her to lead the way.
The lady took the lead and flew in another direction.
