After spending one more day in the Lamias' town so that Relia could finish some negations with its leaders, Marcus' party set off once again.
The route they would be taking was through a considerably dangerous part of the Darklands that was just above a great sea of magma, since the usual path to Relia's home was currently blocked by hordes of warring monsters.

With a bit less caution than they had taken at the start of their journey, Relia led the four of them at a fast pace.
While it could hardly be considered more than a light jog for individuals at their levels, all of them were still constantly running at over a hundred kilometers an hour.
