"Good day, Lord Asher." Gellor and his team greeted Lucius discreetly when they all met again. "We have the news that you\'re looking for."

"Excellent. Let\'s discuss it in a more private area then." Lucius said.

The city of Cutlass was brimmed with a lot of its local people busy with their daily lives and even though they were far from the actual headquarters of Bergan\'s Band, it was unknown who could have been possible eyes and ears for them.

\'I\'m not quite sure if there is a good equivalent of a gift or artifact here in this world, but there are various spells that allow individuals to make their conversation undetectable to others. I should look into one when I\'m given the opportunity to do so. Although, I\'d take a far more useful spell if I had to choose between things.\' Lucius thought.

Kiana did not have the opportunity to find a place similar to the basement of the Blind Crow\'s tavern, but with enough money in one\'s pocket, it was easy to get access to a room that promised privacy.

"Alright, inform me of what all of you\'ve gathered." Lucius ordered once they\'ve settled down in the room.

"We\'ve managed to discover that Bergan is currently out of the city, Lord Asher." Gellor informed him.

"Oh, who is left in charge?" Lucius asked.

"That would be Eric, his second in command." Finch replied and sat up straighter. There was a smile on her face. "And it\'s not only Bergan who\'s currently gone, Lord Asher. He naturally took a number of his people with him."

"Half of the strong members of the band are with Bergan at the moment, and that leaves this place at half of its usual strength, Lord Asher." Barty finished.

"Hmmm… did any of you figure out where Bergan is currently at?" Lucius asked. "There must be a certain reason as to why he took half of his men."

"Unfortunately, we weren\'t able to discover the reason for that." Gellor shook his head. "But we do know that they\'re located far away and cannot come back so quickly. Perhaps they are preoccupied with the expansion elsewhere or are dealing with a difficult mission."

"I see. Well, no matter where they are, the situation is still the same." Lucius said, satisfied with the information he received. "This is the best opportunity to act and I can finally go through with a plan."

"What shall we do next, Lord Asher?" Gellor asked. This was something that he and everyone in his team were quite curious about.

Even with the half capacity of Bergan\'s Band, Gellor and his team were incapable of going toe to toe with them and if it was something that had to do with subterfuge and spying, they were at a lack of skills.

"For now, I need all of you to be prepared to run at anytime. I do not know where all of you stayed in last night, but for this upcoming evening you must all go to the border of the city and stay hidden in some of the inns there, ready to leave at a moment\'s notice." Lucius said.

"Understood." Gellor said alongside his team.

"Very well. All of you are dismissed for now." Lucius said as Kiana opened the door for them to leave.

\'It seems like Lord Asher has a plan that does not involve anybody in my team. How does he plan to take care of the Bergan\'s band on his own? I\'m not sure, but I believe that he surely has his own way of getting to them and he just doesn\'t want us to impede on things.\' Gellor thought as he stepped out of the door.

\'What\'s going to happen? Lord Asher hasn\'t mentioned anything, but if we need to be ready to leave at any time, then something quite huge will occur. I hope nothing dangerous happens to Lord Asher while all of us are gone. I know that he can protect himself… so there\'s no reason to worry that much.\' Finch considered Lord Asher\'s words as she left.

\'Running. Lord Asher said that we need to be prepared to run at a moment\'s notice. Does that mean that there\'s a likely chance that we will be found out and would need to escape?\' Barty pondered with a frown. \'I don\'t think that\'s the case. Lord Asher is a careful young man, but it does make feel a little uneasy.\'

\'In case we have to escape, we need to be able to get past the gates. Should be easy enough with Barty\'s Air Vortex if things get dire.\' Ariana thought. \'Would Lord Asher be coming by that point or would we need to go find him? He didn\'t say anything else, so we\'re just sitting dummies. I hope everything goes well, so this becomes all unnecessary.\'

\'Phew, I thought we were going to get asked to do something crazy like infiltrate the Bergan\'s Band base ourselves, but Lord Asher has another method. I don\'t know what it is, but I guess we\'re not supposed to think about it too much. Although it doesn\'t really seem fair that we\'ll just be resting at inns while Lord Asher does his plan, but if that\'s what he wants, then we just need to follow his directive.\' Albus thought feeling relieved.

Each member of Gellor\'s team was quite curious but knew better than to pry into Lord Asher\'s business. They had been hired to escort him and do what he asked, nothing more and nothing less.

With that thought in mind, they departed and did as they were instructed to.

"What\'s your plan, Asher?" Kiana asked, wanting to be sure. "Is the Plow Worm going to strike the Bergan\'s Band at last?"

"No." Lucius shook his head. "It would be easy to do just that and cause massive destruction and chaos all at once, but as we\'ve discussed before, we will make them suffer and give them a headache. If they are in dire need of funds, well, I\'ll be sending bore shrews to their storage areas tonight."
