We began talking in detail about how exactly we were going to make our way into the imperial land.
It wasn't the kind of place you could just stroll into. A group of elves suddenly appearing there would be suspicious as hell. At best, we'd draw unwanted attention. At worst, slavers might try to grab us the moment we stepped foot inside. Not that I actually believed they could succeed—especially not with people like Hilda around. Just looking at her frame alone, I doubted any common slaver could even make her flinch, much less capture her.
Still, that didn't change the fact that walking in as we were would only cause problems. Which was why I decided to go with the tactic Artemis had used before.
Her strategy was simple and that was to blend in with the people.
But simple didn't mean easy. In fact, it was the complete opposite.
