The soldier walks back to Resh and the wolf. “Locals found your crime scene. Come on, let’s just walk around.” They gesture for Resh to follow, and move back to go down a nearby street.

Resh looks at the soldier and sighs, letting go of the hilt of his sword. “Figures.” He looks around for a moment, then follows after the soldier.
(Should we timeskip to them when they’re almost to the others by like a couple posts or nah)
(Uhhh just timeskip)
They avoided the locals, and continued searching for Teth, Tsadi, and Daphne. They picked up the trail they left, and the wolf was helping Resh and the soldier find them. They were close.
The soldier looks over at Resh again. “Doing any better?”
Resh glances at the soldier and nods. “Yeah, I’m fine.” Please shut up about it- His limp is just as noticeable as before, but he seems to be in less pain. Or he’s just masking it really well.
(He’s masking it.)
(Shhhhhut)
The soldier stares at him for a moment. “If you say so.”
The wolf lifts her head up, ears moving like she’s trying to pinpoint a sound. She looks back at Resh and the soldier and then speeds up pace.
(Thinking about the ears just moving around like that is always so funny to me and idk why)
(Like- spinny ears go weeee)
(cough anyway)
Resh looks at the wolf and raises his eyebrows. He tilts his head as she speeds up, then quickly matches her pace.
The soldier follows along with the two of them. “Really didn’t think this was how my day was going to go.”
The wolf follows the sounds she was hearing. It follows along with the footprints they’re following, so it must be the others.
Resh looks at the soldier and laughs a little. “I don’t think anyone expected the day to go like this.”
The soldier chuckles. “I guess you’re right. Not every day three strangers attack the Crown Prince and kidnap the Queen, let alone one of the soldiers committing treason to help.” They shrug.
Resh rolls his eyes at the soldier and crosses his arms. “Well, when you put it like that, it sounds bad.” He pauses for a moment. “…Okay, maybe it is bad. But we had good intentions-“
The soldier waves him off. “It was for the best. Cyrus… no one particularly enjoys his presence. Besides the snakes in the palace who followed his mother’s ideals.” They pause, thinking. “What I’m trying to say is if you didn’t intervene, things would only end up worse.”
Resh huffs slightly. “Sounds like hell. I can’t believe there are people who actually agree with that rodent…” He shakes his head. “I don’t know much about monarchies, but what I do know is that they almost always end badly… at least, that’s the case where I’m from.”
The soldier tilts their head. "Yeah… If anyone has a monarchy figured out, it's the krill. Somehow they look the most stable, but no one knows much of anything about them."
Resh shrugs. “There used to be a monarchy in my world, a long time ago. That one ended in the corruption of an entire realm, which spread to another realm, which almost spread to a few more… so I might be a little biased now.” He pulls out a knife and starts fidgeting with it. “I wasn’t even alive back then, but everyone knows the story. The Eye of Eden’s very existence makes it a little hard to forget the fall of our kingdom. It used to be a paradise.” Damn it, I’m rambling again. He clears his throat. “…Anyway-“
The soldier looks at him with either bewilderment or disbelief, it’s hard to tell with their mask. “That sounds like… it sounds like the tale of the ancestors.” And he said “our kingdom”… what?
Resh blinks a few times. “That’s… really weird. How are our worlds so similar, but at the same time so different..?” He looks down and mumbles to himself a bit.
(laughs in same game we based them off of)
(That’s the entire reason why this crossover exists lmao)
(Yep)
They round a corner and enter the alleyway with Teth, Daphne, and (I’m assuming,) Tsadi. The soldier moves a bit behind Resh so they don’t look too imposing. Not that they looked extremely threatening, anyway. The wolf walks over to Daphne, sniffing at her curiously before looking at her.
