Everyone resumed walking at that point. "We'll be getting into Salamandastron-protected territory soon, should we veer east, off the coast?"

"Exactly what I was saying," Archon agreed.
Linx gestured to the others. "Well, let's go east, then. That means going directly away from the shore, cutting into Mossflower. We'll go northwest to get back to the fort."

Archon dropped to the ground just in time to see a light reflecting from polished steel inches above his head, then a thud as it drove into a waiting rat's skull. Three more waited in ambush and they charged with cutlasses in time to meet Linx and Archon drawing their swords.

**Another knife left Azrah's paw, slicing of the paw of the third rat.**

Four corpses littered the tall grass. Linx spoke first, as usual. "Azrah, get your knives. Rest of you, start checking bodies. Not just for spoils, we should know if they're part of a larger group or just some bandits. Probably the latter but it doesn't hurt to check."
Archon obligingly started checking the body of the one he had impaled the heart of.

"You're the one who threw it, you know." Archon rifled through the body's pockets and fished out a malachite pendant. "Hey, take a look at this, I've never seen a pendant like this, malachite, I think. But that's not associated with any groups I know, don't know what it signifies."

"Innocent travelers don't just happen to carry this sort of thing," Archon responded. "First of all, this is extremely well crafted, considering it's a 4 on the hardness scale. Second of all, this is malachite, which is pretty rare in formations this large. And third of all... There's an insignia carved on the back." He had flipped it over and was staring at an equilateral triangle with a lightning bolt-shaped line bisecting it vertically engraved in the gold backing.

"It doesn't take much scrutiny to recognize a specific insignia," Linx remarked. "Could I see that?"
Archon obligingly handed it over. "It was in his pocket. I don't know why, maybe he wasn't supposed to have it, otherwise he'd wear it around his neck."
