In the end, everyone was planning to go. Even Leo wanted to fight, though he would have to do it in a very diminished version of turtle form, as his Tortollan form really wasn't suited to combat.
It would be adorable, but not really combat effective.
Once the beasts were all in their spaces, ready for the trip, Dana came to join them.
"Sorry for the delay, everyone, It takes some time to get prepared in the morning."
The Elders shrugged. "We wouldn't expect any less. That's part of why we arrived so early. With many of our own Elders, if you don't give them three hours warning, it is challenging to get them moving."
By that standard, Dana was practically running out to meet them.
"Alright, if you're ready, our team is waiting by the dungeon. Can you open the portal directly, or do we need to take an extra stop in the middle?"
Karl shook his head. "I know where we're going now. I'll take us straight there."
