[Aurora can feel every bump the carriage hits as they pass through the desert. It doesn't help her nerves, her hand tightening on the hilt of her sword. When she was first told she had a very important mission, never in her life would she have expected this. Sure the lalafell had dedicated her life to the Sultana, but she had accepted she may never personally meet her.
But now... they're traveling in the same carriage. Aurora can't even look her in the eyes. Even in the most dangerous missions, she had never felt this nervous before. Her armor felt heavier than usual. She was trying to shake it off though; this mission was very important after all.
They were trying to be subtle with not to draw attention to the Sultana traveling. An airship would be faster of course, but way more noticable. Even the General wasn't coming; though he would come to meet them in Gridania later. He had some things to work on, and the Sultana couldn't wait any longer.
So here they were: Aurora Rora, the Sultana, and every gods damn bump in the road. Hopefully the rest of the mission would be smooth...]
