The fields of Etruria refers to most of the land of Etruria. One must cross them to get anywhere in the nation. Oddly enough, very few bandit attacks happen in Etruria. A traveler can sometimes run into a highwayman, though.

'The fields of Etruria. Where he wanted to go along it though led to a much more perilous place than this. It was good however to take it all in, the rather peaceful scenery. It could lead to the church for the Saint Elimine, or could head to the port. He was headed for neither though, his trusted horse continuing its slow trek along the fields. He didn't have to rush there, plus his mind was on a few other things. Such as the bad feeling that he's been having lately.'
"I suppose I should pick up the pace then. Hopefully it's just my imagination."

A single thrust of his spear, the eyes of the soldier set dead ahead. He had been on the fields training by himself for a time doing this. With this done he figured he may as well hit the road again. He'd head for the church to take a break and then see if they had any info on where he could head to after that. Lacing up his lance and putting his shield on his side, he started walking again.

'Seemed as though he wasn't the only one crossing the fields right now. A soldier was taking to it as well, though his direction was the church. It wasn't a bad place to go, and normally he would keep going regardless of things. But when he last left, the passage was getting more and more rough to get back through, possibly to the point where annoyingly he couldn't do it on his own. The man also looked like a mercenary he had heard mention of from time to time, so just maybe it was someone who'd be willing to help. If even for a fee likely.'
"Hey. You're that mercenary, Keilen correct?"

Thor turned to face the man, having heard him call out to him. It wasn't often that someone simply called out to him because they were headed in the same direction. Often times they would pass greetings and continue on their way, then split ways at the end. This person seemed to know him by his reputation as well, nodding back in return.
"Thor Lilinus Keilen. Well met. How may I be of assistance?"

'So he was right in his assumption. That was good and it let him get on to business then rather than having to go through all of the introductions like normal.'
"Rain Aledersaem, well met. I wanted to know if you were open for a job at the time. I'm presently on my way back home, but I can't get there without a bit of difficulty and might need some assistance to make it there. If you need to make some preparations first, that works too."

It sounded like an honest enough job. He could possibly skip heading to the church for a break if that was all it was. However, if it was that difficult then helping to the best of his abilities would be important then. He wouldn't want to mess up and fail the task.
"Alright then. We'll worry about the payment and all of that at a later time. For now I'm headed for the church. After I'm done there, we can make our way to where you wish to go."

'It was decided then, nodding to Thor's words. The church wasn't that far off from here anyway. After that they would have a relatively long trip to make it back to where he wanted to go. At least he had some company rather than off on his own, starting his trek in the direction of the church now.'
"We may as well stick together then. Let's go."

Thor nodded, partially glad to have a new job and to be able to help him get back. In that case, he would have to put his all into it. Having a traveling companion for a time was nice too, so he couldn't say that he wasn't feeling a bit glad about it. Following after Rain as he made his way for the church.

".....Hm."
*It had been a decently long journey to get to the plains, even more given he had to hike on foot here. While he wanted to simply continue advancing, he figured it would be best of them to seek shelter and rest next. The closest place to accomplish that would be the Elimine Church that wasn't too far off from here. Once they arrived there, they could rest for a while and then continue onward. If they wanted information, and good information at that, they would have to reach the capital of Etruria. If they were lucky and got some at the church however, that would be fine.*
"We make way for the church. After that, then we'll continue our journey."

"I've been here before. Greg and I will take the lead then."
Jin had no problem with this, both dismounting and keeping one of their hands on the reins of their stallion instead. That way there was no speed difference between themselves and those walking along with them. The rest would be well deserved for the riders and their horses alike, the horses more given they had gone all the way here for them. Though Cameron probably needed a break too given he was walking all around in that large suit of armor. Luckily, they'd arrive at the church in no time then.

"Alright then. We'll be there in no time at all."
Greg picked up the pace so he was beside Bart then, knowing Jin and Shiro wouldn't be that far behind along with Cameron. Once they got to the church, they could rest for a good long while and afterward try and find out anything they could about their two key subjects. If they didn't learn anything, they would proceed onward to the capital. He would help them through most of the capital, but he would have to part ways with them momentarily so he could go and handle something else too. After all, he was back in his homeland after all. He had to go and visit them while he had the time and before he was on some big major leave for this crisis. Who knew when he would get another chance after all?

Shiro kept up with the others rather fairly. He supposed that heading to the church would be a rather smart idea in this sort of situation. There was no where else, really, to get shelter. He was curious if things would continuing going so well for them, but overall, he supposed that he would just have to wait and see.

As Bart and Greg took the lead to head toward the church, for once their journey was at last a fully peaceful one. The only troubles on it would be in their own minds alone, allowing them to travel for the most part and head completely toward the church. Once they arrived they would be able to carry out what else they wanted.

They continued on their way to the church, and eventually they arrived at just that: the church. Looking back to the others, Bart nodded before heading on inside. It was about time they kept on moving forward, lest they end up somehow in a situation where rest couldn't be obtained for them. That wouldn't be in their best interest either.

Shiro continued along with the trek, giving a small blink as they came across the church. That trip... surprisingly felt longer than he thought it would have gone. With a shrug, he entered the building as well.

*Cameron followed after, heading into the building too. Once this was done, they would be yet another step closer to what they were after. That was a good thing, they were making rather good progress compared to most he supposed. But how long until they ran into a dead end? Hopefully they could proceed still for the time being in halting whatever it was that was coming to be.*

And with that, they each had made it to their next destination. They would have a reprieve here at the very least. And once they were done and everything was said and done, they might have solved their present mystery even. Hopefully, that was the case when all was said and done.
