Although the monkey attack was anticipated, the recruits lacked the experience and skill to easily deal with them – they only managed to withstand the onslaught at the cost of several squad members' lives. Although attempting to save them was a logical decision, Ashur watched with some regret as his comrades opened the package and took the medical supplies. However, even so, it was not possible to avoid losses in their ranks – the ranger Milo lay lifeless. The merchant was no stranger to witnessing the untimely death of those who protected him, but the very fact that they had managed to suffer losses so early clouded his thoughts.
After the squad said goodbye to the deceased, Ashur shouldered his bag again, noting with mixed feelings that it had become a little lighter. No more enemies were encountered on the rest of the journey, and soon they reached the cave where the demons were hiding, and where the cargo was intended. However, before the recruits could leave the lair, more guests arrived – this time from the Order of Innocent Lafrenia. Their armor-clad leader offered the people to leave the place before his planned cleansing of the demons. Raum, the demon leader, expressed his willingness to sacrifice himself for the unhindered retreat of the others. The situation was escalating...
Ashur stepped forward.
“Esteemed Cardinal! It seems that the situation here was not quite correctly perceived by the Order, I believe, due to incomplete information. The situation is that this place is a supply route for humanitarian aid to the inhabitants of Eolia, and therefore it should be considered as part of a safe corridor, where aggression is unacceptable. I ask you to take into account that this event is being carried out under the auspices of the trading guild of the Eastern Federation. As an authorized representative of it, I have the right to strongly ask you to move the location of your initiative to other demon shelters, if any can be found.
