The group discussed further what steps should be taken, and all of them sounded equally well thought out; Ellie couldn't shake the feeling of loyalty, but to whom? With every interjection, her mind wandered here and there. She decided that, ultimately, the coming events would likely decide for her. Newfound loyalty or old? She had told Paige, after all, that her home wasn't much of one... so why the sudden patriot?
In the next breath, the red headed knight that had made his way to the streets was scurrying back with news of pursuing threats. Ellie wasn't entirely sure what to do, but she followed everyone's lead as they scrambled into the shadows of the alleyway. She found a quaint little corner to tuck herself into, which she did with utmost urgency.
Paige spoke first, with Satsume showing himself moments later. What in blazes is with this guy? The men rambled and joked for a few moments, before the crowd began to clear - the soldiers offering a quick glance around the alley before turning to follow in the direction of Satsume and Paige. Ellie said nothing, Ellie did nothing. She waited patiently for a few moments, and then she made her way towards the edge of the alley.
"I'm going to find Paige... see you soon?" she called back to the shadows as she turned. She didn't wait for a response, but she paused just long enough to be sure she was heard. She turned once more and walked into the streets, searching up and down for the band of soldiers. As she did, she noticed what looked like Paige's hair disappearing into the doorway of the inn. She followed quickly, but made sure not to draw attention as she entered, placing her hand gingerly on her friend's shoulder.
"Where to?"
