The group of 3 were shown to a large cabin in the center of the clearing. Jasmine knocked on the door firmly when they heard a jolly come in. When they entered Annabeth got a good look at the elder he was slightly overweight but had bright blue eyes and a welcoming smile. The village elder stood and held out a hand "the names Dunmrer how do you do". Jasmine smiled "this is my assistant Annabeth and our friend Bryson". Dunmer shook both the younger ones hands and offered for them to sit down and brought in coffee.
"Now I'm sentry tells me you bring news of a attack is that correct" asked Dunmer. 'Yes now I'm sure you have heard of the traitor known as Salem" asked Jasmine. Jasmine told him the entire story and their wishes to weaken Salem's forces and Dunmer agreed immediately. "We were hoping to start tomorrow but for now we were looking for a place to stay" said Jasmine. "Oh yes of course their is a inn 2 blocks away I'm sure you will have a comfortable stay" said Dunmer cheerfully. Jasmine and her young companions booked 2 rooms and scheduled for dinner.
Annabeth sat on the floor creating maps and defense positions when Bryson came over. "Well by the look of what your doing the assassins won't know what hit them" said Bryson. "So are you and Jasmine heading out tomorrow to get that shipment of supplies" asked Annabeth pushing his praise aside. "I believe so" said Bryson nodding his head. Bryson wasn't sure how or why he was helping them but all the same deep down he knew he had to. The bell downstairs rang for dinner calling them down. "Coming" asked Bryson already at the door. "I'll be down in a minute" said Annabeth going back to her work. "Now all I have to do is convince them to fight" muttered Annabeth.
