Shubbles POV:

The days went by quickly. And during those days I've noticed many things about this kingdom. One of the things I've noticed is the population of owls they have here, but I'm not going to question it unless it come up in the future, though they are absolutely beautiful. Another thing I've noticed is how much this kingdoms people trust their king. While we're been here me and the others have spent a lot of time with Scott and  watched as he told the people, and though many grew worried about the news and their future you could see in their eyes that they trusted Scott to keep them safe. It reminds me of my people's faces when I told them about this journey I was taking.

But now it was the time for us to leave. He also told us that we would be leaving on horse back. Which will hopefully speed up the way back. So  now we are waiting on the mountain we were on when we first arrived here on horses waiting for Scott and his men to get here. Which gave us time to take once last look at Rivendell.

And after about a few minutes of us waiting I could see some of Scott's men coming up the hill. I would say there seemed to be about 8 soldiers on horses, which makes sense seeming as this will be a long journey back to our kingdoms, and it wouldn't have made sense to make them walk along side us. Though I think the reason for have them coming along with us is not only because of protection but also for carrying supplies for the journey. However what I saw behind the soldiers I couldn't help but left my mouth fall open a bit.

Right behind the small group of soldiers was Scott but he wasn't just in a horse. He was riding on a blue stag that had huge gold horns on top of there head. However none of the horses or the soldiers seemed to have any trouble with the stage and just continued on. I believe that it was Scott royal mount now I think about it.

All rulers from all the empires have a special royal mount that is unique to them and can even be a symbol of their respective culture, geography, and (or) empire. It been a tradition of many centuries for all the rulers to have such a mount, so seeing the tradition still stand today even after the elf's kingdom fell off the face of the earth brought joy to me.

"Sorry for the wait I hope it didn't cause to much trouble." Scott said on top of his stag.smiling at us  as he came to a stop in front of us.

"It's no trouble but we are kinda hoping you know a better way though the woods than we do. Because the way we came wasn't really the most enjoyable part of our trip" Gem said from the back. Seeming to grimes at the thought of doing that again.

"Well way back then when trading and travel still came here there was a path they took to get here and during the days of you staying here I had some of my men look for said path and good new they found it!" Scott said with a happy look on his face.

"That's good. Shall we make are way there then." FWhip said from next to me. To which Scott nodded in agreement and started to lead the way as we and his soldiers followed behind.

3rd person POV

When they got to the path the group noticed it was a little over grown but cause of the cold of the region not that many plans where on the path. Which was a relief as the plants would have only made it harder to get to Spawn.

The group followed the path though the woods. It only took 2 days to finally get out of the woods and on the other side. Which was very refreshing to the group that started this trip. And now the hardest part of the journey was over with.

But the four rulers knew that they still had a long way to go. But in all of this there was one thing that the rulers we're happy about. If they move quickly they'll be able to catch this months meeting at spawn, no better way to meet the other rulers right?

But they have to get there first so with that they started to make there way to Spawn. Oh if the other rulers could see them now.
